Read our privacy policy Britain will lose more than the European Union from its decision to leave the bloc, the EU's top diplomat said on Thursday, and talks with London were expected to be difficult. Prime Minister Theresa May formally began Britain's divorce from the EU last month, declaring there was no turning back, ushering in a tortuous exit process that will test the bloc's cohesion and pitch her country into the unknown. The EU's foreign policy chief, Federica Mogherini, said during a visit to Beijing the negotiations would be difficult. “The European Union, even after the UK will be out, will continue to be the first market in the world, the second largest economy in the world,” Mogherini said.
