<p>[QUOTE=&quot;chrisild, post: 2870346, member: 39&quot;]Guess that idea is about as vague as the Brexit roadmap. <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> From what I have read, a territory that is currently part of a European Union member state, and plans to become independent, would not be an EU member any more. Then again, Scotland is different from Catalonia in that Spain has no intention to leave the EU. So a Scottish government will argue that &quot;we simply want to stay in the European Union&quot; - in the case of Spain, both &quot;Madrid&quot; and &quot;Barcelona&quot; want to stay ...</p><p><br /></p><p>Another issue (and I am trying to explain this without getting into a political debate) is that, provided &quot;Edinburgh&quot; actually wants Scottish independence, &quot;London&quot; might be willing to agree to some consensual deal. Now if Catalonia started the accession negotiations with the EU, that could a fast process, but at the end, all member states would have to agree. All - that includes Spain.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
