European leaders welcome prospect of UK rejoining the EU

European leaders have responded positively to suggestions that the United Kingdom could eventually rejoin the European Union. Following remarks by British politician Andy Burnham regarding potential UK re-entry into the bloc, French President Emmanuel Macron offered a "welcome back" to the prospect.

Similarly, Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez indicated that Spain would receive the British "with open arms" should the country choose to reverse its decision to leave. The statements reflect an openness among EU leaders to reconsidering relations with London as debate within the UK surrounding the long-term impact of Brexit continues. However, no formal mechanism or official proposal for rejoining has been initiated by the British government.
