The UK will pay the European Union 40-45 billion euros as a financial settlement within the framework of Brexit, Sky News reports citing the official representative of the Great Britain.
“We expect the range will be 35-39 billion pounds. We consider this as an honest settlement of our obligations, we always said that if we have obligations, we will fulfill them, ”he said.
