Today's Highlighted Video Story: The European Union and the UK finally reached a trade and security deal.
British Prime Minister Boris Johnson calls it an agreement that will help the UK take control of its destiny.
But in Scotland, pro-independence leader Nicola Sturgeon says it is time for the country to become an 'independent European nation'.
The First Minister tweeted that what is happening is 'against Scotland’s will'.
In the 2016 Brexit referendum, 62 percent of voters in Scotland opted to remain in the European Union.
Since then, calls for independence have grown.
But will an independent Scotland be allowed to join the EU?
