ASD responsible for letter addressed to Michel Barnier and David Frost on Brexit

09/07/2020 (Agence Europe) – Contrary to what we stated in our article dated 9 July (see EUROPE 12523/28), the letter addressed to Michel Barnier and David Frost, respectively the EU and UK chief negotiators on Brexit, was not sent by Eurospace but by ASD, the umbrella organisation “AeroSpace & Defence”, Eurospace being a group of ASD. The letter therefore concerns a much wider range of sectors than that covered by Eurospace, covering civil aeronautics, space, defence and security. The article will be corrected online accordingly.
