This series is being run by a young Brit who lived in Belgium for 19 years and now resides in Cardiff, known on theSprout as Ironfoot. The aim? To inform and involve other young people in this once in a generation debate from many important and interesting perspectives.
The EU referendum is just around the corner and will decide the future fate for Britain on its European Union Membership, with team Brexit (British Exit) wanting to leave the EU and team Bremain (Pro – EU) wishing to stay. With just 1 day to go, there are still a lot of questions to be answered, especially around British Expats.
This is the final interview from the Brussels tour and this interview is with NATO International Staff and UK Expat, Ian Stallion. Ian Stallion served for many years with the Royal Navy, specialising in UK submarines. He has now worked for NATO for about four years and his responsibilities are in NATO’s nuclear deterrent policies. This basically means he helps in the overseeing of NATO’s nuclear weapons.
This interview discusses the impacts of the EU Referendum on NATO and explores the question of what will happen to the UK expats and staff members depending on the results tomorrow.
