On January 31, 2020, Great Britain left the European Union (EU) and was given the opportunity to pursue an independent fishing policy. In this regard, the article considers the legal and political aspects of possible cooperation between the Russian Federation and the United Kingdom in the field of fisheries. An information on the state of the UK fishing industry is provided; the legal aspects of the UK exit from the EU in the context of fisheries are analyzed; the history of relations as well as the prospects for cooperation between Russia and the UK in the field of fisheries is considered. The authors have developed recommendations on the political and legal support of the fishery interests of the Russian Federation in relations with the UK.

This chapter analyses legal and factual aspects of the provision of mental health care for migrants in the European Union (EU), framing migrants’ access to mental health care within the wider contexts of migration in the EU, the EU’s policies for migrants’ integration and access to health care, and EU policies on mental health care for all. The rates of various psychiatric disorders may vary across migrant groups and host populations. The issue of how services can be made more accessible for migrants is to be considered within the context of the provision of mental health care for all in the EU, where mental disorders are a serious public health concern. Various gaps are identified, and various options are suggested that policymakers and healthcare professionals can take into account, bearing in mind facts and figures of migration in Europe—with a particular focus on migration from non-EU countries—and the consideration of mental health care as a right for all migrants.

Spain is a member state of the European Union, covering over 500,000 km2 and with a population of more than 40 million. However, taking into account only the gross national product, there is no doubt that Spain still belongs to the southern countries.

Mental health of children and adolescents is one of important issues managed as part of preventive interventions not only in Poland, but throughout the European Union. Many studies have shown continuous deterioration of mental health among children and adolescents. Alarming data have been published by the World Health Organization, which show that up to 20% of children suffer from various types of mental problems, hence the need for interventions that will put an end to this process. The most important target set by the European Union countries is to introduce large-scale multilevel preventive measures aimed at the total population, referred to as universal prevention. In addition to universal prevention, European Union countries, including Poland, implement targeted interventions for those at risk and those already diagnosed, as part of preventive mental health care. These measures are part of the WHO Comprehensive Mental Health Action Plan 2013–2030, which encompasses the following objectives: promote mental well-being, enhance recovery, and reduce the mortality, morbidity and disability for persons with mental disorders. This plan was intended to focus on improving mental health care and implementing comprehensive actions at the local level in all European Union countries, which often requires legislative changes in member states. Mental health is becoming the focal point of national and local interventions in Poland. Fast and free access to specialists close to one’s place of residence becomes crucial.

When entering active politics, Boris Johnson tries to use his communicative properties as effectively as possible. A well-known graduate of Eton College, as well as Oxford, he actively communicates with his classmates and other graduates, as well as authoritative and influential people who will play key roles in his political career in the future. Being active in political communications, Johnson shows ‘political wobbles’ in the heterogeneous political space of the UK, thus earning unflattering reviews. So, after being appointed head of the Ministry of foreign Affairs, he is repeatedly criticized by the mass media and foreign politicians. Johnson actively speaks out about the problems of communication with China and Russia, showing fickle views and assessments. Johnson’s communicative-active and politically-discrete properties allow him to radically change his political statements without much personal difficulty. Not so long ago, he revised his attitude to the question of the influence of the Russian Federation on the referendum on Britain’s exit from the European Union, saying that after a long work, no evidence was found of Moscow’s interference in the referendum. Perhaps, we shall soon see another transformation of the views and skills of this shocking and new in all senses political person in the chair of the head of the UK ministry.
