Britain’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson has accused the EU of failing to negotiate seriously.

LONDON: Talks to agree to a Brexit trade deal with the European Union are over, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s spokesman said on Friday, saying there was no point carrying on unless the bloc fundamentally changed its stance. “The trade talks are over: the EU have effectively ended them by saying that they do not want to change their negotiating position,” Johnson’s spokesman said.

“There is no point in trade talks if the EU doesn’t change its position. The EU effectively ended the trade talks yesterday. Only if the EU fundamentally changes its position, will it be worth talking.”But, asked about this Johnson’s spokesman said: “There is only any point in Michel Barnier coming to London next week if he’s prepared to discuss all of the issues on the basis of legal texts in an accelerated way, without the UK being required to make all of the moves.
