On Friday, French Agriculture Minister Julien Denormandie told France 2 TV that talks between France and the UK over post-Brexit fishing licenses had made no progress, and that France could consider sanctions against the UK.

In a fast worsening fight over post-Brexit fishing rights, Britain protested France’s detention of a British boat in French waters on Thursday and urged Paris against further retribution.
