53In the second place, as regards the consequences of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union for nationals of that State, it must be noted that Article 50(1) TEU states that any Member State may decide to withdraw from the Union in accordance with its own constitutional requirements. It follows that the Member State is not required to take its decision in concert with the other Member States or with the EU institutions. The decision to withdraw is for that Member State alone to take, in accordance with its constitutional requirements, and therefore depends solely on its sovereign choice (judgment of 10 December 2018, Wightman and Others, C‑621/18, EU:C:2018:999, paragraph 50).
