on future relations between the eu and the uk. so what are the big concerns for europe? first up, the divorce bill — the draft withdrawal agreement includes a "financial settlement" from the uk, thought to amount to around £39 billion, or about $50 billion, which is contingent on a withdrawal agreement being signed. northern ireland is also a key concern for the eu. it exported around $6 billion worth of goods to the eu in 2017. the draft agreement says the eu would work with the uk to agree a trade deal in order to avoid physical checks on goods at the border. if talks fail, the so—called ‘backstop‘ measure would be used to keep the border open. the uk's biggest eu trading partners, like france and germany, have also had worries over the maintenance of so—called level playing fields on competition, state aid, employment, environmental standards and tax. this would ensure that uk businesses don't undercut eu industry. and the draft agreement gives london's financial centre only a basic level of access to the eu's market
