Boris's cred is low at the moment and he must keep to his word because the EU is a perfidious negotiator, particularly driven by the equally perfidious French and Irish governments.

Based on what Boris has done with an international treaty, I suspect most impartial observers feel he's a closer fit for "perfidious".
But Boris rolled over on the Withdrawal Agreement so chances are he'll do the same again, I agree. But this time, the EU will want some guarantee he'll honour the agreement.
