Dublin (Ireland), Feb 9 (EFE), (Camera: Javier Aja).- While the new Brexit bureaucracy has destocked supermarkets in Northern Ireland and increases border tensions, the Republic of Ireland continues to fine-tune its machinery to process in its ports almost two million customs declarations of imports per month, mainly British. That figure gives an idea of the magnitude of the impact that the United Kingdom's exit from the European Union (EU) is having on this country, according to Tom Talbot, head of customs operations at the Department of Finance, at a meeting with the media in Dublin Port.FOOTAGE OF THE PORT OF DUBLIN.
