Individual EU countries might be better off. But the EU overall is worse off. Also, having a worse off UK even if it’s outside the EU is not a good thing for EU countries. Contrary to what many believe, the global economy is not a zero sum game. For the most part, the UK doing better means the countries it has trade relations with will also do better.
