@Mapuc Hasn't the prime minister said he will block Norway's waters for the EU and the UK ?

https://www.reuters.com/article/brit...-idINKBN28L1ZP

"Norway may close access to its fishing waters to European and British vessels from Jan. 1, its fisheries minister said on Friday"

And the reason:

" ... because a trilateral fisheries deal Oslo wants with the European Union and Britain has not been concluded."

Which should not be a big problem for the UK, since they do not have enough trawlers to catch all their own fish anyway.
The biggest problem exists for The Netherlands and France, since they have the big fishing fleet they built because the UK had sold fishing rights to them.
Will those treaties be null and void after brexit?

But also a problem for Denmark of course, I guess they will not want to go as far as Greenland to catch their fish.
