membership in the European Union was to encourage the EU leadership as well as the governments 
of the leading member states to make concessions to London."A significant part of 
future attention, including EU forces and 
resources, will be absorbed by building new 
relations between Britain and the EU," Umland 
said [11]. Undoubtedly, Brexit will form many 
internal problems for the European Union, 
which will mean that Ukraine may for somee disappear from the spotlight of its 
partners in the EU. 
There is no doubt that, with the release of 
the United Kingdom, Kyiv will lose some of the 
strong support for its European aspirations 
within the EU. Britain, as we know, was 
against the deepening of integration within 
the European Union, but supported its 
expansion at the expense of new members. The United Kingdom has long been one of the 
key players supporting the European 
aspirations of our state. In addition, Britain is 
one of the main forces in the European Union, 
which advocates the preservation of sanctions 
against Russia. The United Kingdom plays the 
role of a nucleus in the camp of European 
countries (Poland, the Baltic States, Romania, 
Bulgaria, Sweden), which are cautious about 
Russia after its aggression in Ukraine and are 
not going to make concessions about 
sanctions. According to G.Kukhaleishvili, Britain is the 
only European country that, in its authority 
and economic influence, can equitably enter 
into a debate with the Franco-German 
tandem, as well as with certain political circles 
of member states that question the 
expediency of continuing anti-Russian 
sanctions ( Italy, Greece, Slovakia). As a 
result, according to O.Riabchina, we will lose 
one of the strongest friends of Ukraine in the 
European Union, whose rigid position in 
counteracting Russian aggression often 
balances the moderate Franco-German 
position [1]. As the diplomat, Maidan of Foreign Affairs 
expert O. Hara, Britain, as a strategic ally of 
the United States, played an important role in 
shaping the united position of Washington and 
Brussels on Russia's containment. Brexit, 
meanwhile, entrusts the fate of European 
sanctions to the Franco-German tandem, 
which reinforces the position of supporters of 
the "carrot policy".Therefore, the development of policy in this 
direction can be more likely to unite than to 
disassociate players in the European arena.According to some calculations, the 
EU "costs" 430 pounds a year to British 
households. Eurosceptics believe that this 
money can be spent more for the benefit of its 
own state, that is to research and inventions 
in the fields of science and technology. But, on 
the other hand, the EU is paying attention to 
the fact that these households cover their 
losses, gaining up to 3,000 pounds of benefits 
from membership in the European Union. And another important reason was 
standardization. The British do not like the 
fact that the EU sets standards and standards 
for sizes, forms of things, and more. EU 
lawyers are convinced that the availability of 
one European standard is much more 
convenient and advantageous than the 
twenty-eight national standard. In turn, 
opponents of EU membership believe that the 
country must have national control of 
everything, especially on security, 
employment and health. It is believed that Britain's exit with the EU 
can create a "domino effect".Under conditions where the opposition will 
deepen political integration in London, while 
the elites in Brussels and the national capitals 
will be scared by the prospect of a collapse of 
the EU, Europeans can give Berlin a complete 
map of blanche for quick and decisive 
integration reforms aimed at making a 
European Unity is so deep and fundamental 
that nobody even has the idea of leaving the 
Union.Under these conditions, Berlin will be 
able to slow down the implementation of the 
steps Britain has hampered, 
namely: 
- registration of a pan-European migration 
policy; 
- creation of a single EU army; 
- Strengthening the integration of the 
budgets of the EU member states.The specified 
requirements can be divided into four blocks 
[3]: 
- Integration and sovereignty: London 
demanded from Brussels that the main 
goal of integration - the creation of an 
"ever closer union" - did not extend to the 
UK, which allowed the latter not to 
participate in further political integration.
