The budget of the European Union will lose about 12 billion euros per year from Brexit. Do without them the EU can not, therefore, the shortage will have to be reimbursed to the remaining members of the association, said Oettinger. "These missing billions will be compensated by savings and higher contributions from member countries," explained the European Commissioner to the German edition of Bild.

London, of course, also have to fork out. According to estimates of Oettinger, the British must continue to make contributions to long-term EU programs, which were approved before Brexit. The official expects that the transfer of funds for all-European needs, the UK will be at least until 2020.

In London, in principle, they do not refuse that they will have to pay a penalty. Local media referring to sources in the government reported that a one-time payment of up to 40 billion euros is possible. However, it is not possible to converge in sums with Brussels. In the United Kingdom, even hinted at the possibility of blackmail: if it fails to harmonize the cost of Brexit in a good way, Britain is ready to send spent nuclear fuel from the European storage facilities on its territory to its countries of origin.

More than half of the country's residents voted to withdraw from the European Union in a referendum on June 23, 2016. The official procedure Brexit launched on March 29 this year. All issues must be resolved within two years.
