'Minimal changes in the US after Brexit'

"We traded with Britain yesterday, and will continue to trade with Britain tomorrow", says US economist Dr Irwin Stelzer, as the world digests what it means now that the UK has voted to leave the European Union. Dr Stelzer says that it is harder to get Congress to approve a deal with the EU because it includes "so many losses of sovereignty for America", so a deal just with Britain if needed might be better for the US. He adds that there is even talk to invite Britain to join NAFTA - the North Atlantic Free Trade agreement. (Image: English pound with US flag in background. Credit: Getty Images).
