South Korea Pact Brings Post-Brexit Continuity Deals to 13

Britain has agreed to roll over trade arrangements with some other nations that were established in EU trade deals, which the U.K. was party to as a member of the bloc. It’s set to sign a continuity deal with South Korea on Thursday, bringing the total number of such deals to 13.
