"Britain was a country that invested more in the EU's general budget than it received, despite Thatcher's agreement on a partial return of funds, so our deficit will be 10-11 billion euros per year," said Oettinger.

He also stressed that if the defense and security sectors are financed, the total deficit may double.

By the way, official talks between London and Brussels began on June 19. In addition, negotiations should last until November 2018.
