Jean-Yves Le Drian told Europe 1 Radio that it was very worrying and the British must say what they want.He said: "The say that they want to put forward other solutions, alternative arrangements so that they can leave," he said, referring to Prime Minister Boris Johnson's efforts to find a way out of the backstop, the main sticking point.
"But we have not seen them and so it is 'no'... let the British authorities tell us the way forward," he said.Britain was originally meant to leave the European Union on 29 March but with parliament deadlocked the British government ended up negotiating a delay to 31 October.
Mr Johnson's determination to leave "do or die" by that deadline has been shaken by the events of recent days, which have prompted critics to describe him as a tyrant and deepened uncertainty over how Britain's 2016 vote to leave the EU will play out. Meanwhile, Mr Johnson is due in Dublin tomorrow to meet Taoiseach Leo Varadkar when the focus will be on Brexit and Northern Ireland.There will be live coverage tomorrow morning of Leo Varadkar and Boris Johnson's meeting on RTÉ News Now, RTÉ Television and RTÉ Radio
