[Global Times Comprehensive Report] The British "Brexit", but there are still various interests between the EU. According to the British "Guardian" reported on the 5th, "Brexit" made the British scientific community "very injured". When the British and EU argued due to the Northern Ireland issue, the EU had canceled 115 funding funding for British scientists.

According to the previous agreement reached by the British and the European Union, 150 British scientific research projects that have been funded by the European Research Commission and have been included in the EU "European Highway" scientific research funding plan. Britain continued to receive EU funding after Brexit. Now that the deadline has passed, only a dozen British scholars have successfully transferred the project from the United Kingdom, which means that other projects cannot continue to pay the European Union. The European Research Commission did not disclose the total amount of capital withdrawal from British scientific research projects, but it is estimated that the number may be more than 100 million pounds.

The British threatened to completely withdraw from the project and start another stove to engage in Britain's own scientific research funding plan to compete with the "European Horizon". However, it is reported that there are differences between the British Ministry of Science and Technology and the Ministry of Finance on how to fund the operation of scientific research funding plans for Britain and how to build a structure.
