BRUSSELS: EU and UK officials are to resume talks Monday on Britain's plans for a managed Brexit after a weekend hiatus during which London was under pressure to revise its proposals.
"Everything must move very quickly and any negotiation has to start at the beginning of next week," one diplomat told AFP."We will evaluate next Friday whether it's been possible to bring the positions closer." The EU refuses to characterise the talks held so far as negotiations, underlining a preference to stick with a Brexit withdrawal agreement that was struck with Johnson's predecessor Theresa May but rejected three times by British MPs.That is meant to guarantee no border springs up between the British territory and EU member Ireland, threatening a hard-won peace accord, while also maintaining the integrity of the EU's single market.
If either of those two proposals are red lines for Johnson, it is hard to see the EU moving talks into the negotiation phase.
