Brexit pushes Gibraltar into EU customs union and Schengen area

Gibraltar and Spain reached a deal to ease border crossing restrictions post-Brexit. The agreement, years in the making, eliminates what Spain called the "last wall on continental Europe," allowing for free movement of people. While EU border controls will remain alongside British ones at the airport, Gibraltar made concessions on taxation, particularly on tobacco. The deal affirms Gibraltar's British sovereignty but may face opposition from UK Eurosceptics.
