BRUSSELS: European Commission chief Jean-Claude Juncker said on Tuesday he regrets not intervening in the Brexit referendum, insisting the EU could have"destroyed the lies" that led to Britain voting to leave.
Juncker says he made a mistake by listening to British leader David Cameron when he told him to stay out of the campaign before the June 2016 Brexit vote. Britain's bombshell vote - by 52 per cent to 48 - to leave the EU sent shockwaves through the bloc and came after a controversial campaign where both sides accused each other of peddling lies and exaggerations.
