Brexit: EU to set out 'practical solutions' as UK demands changes to Northern Ireland Protocol

Frans Timmermans, a fellow European Commission vice-president to Mr Sefcovic, told Sky News:"We just want to find practical solutions for the problems of the people and businesses of Northern Ireland.

"We know that there are some objective difficulties in Northern Ireland for citizens and businesses and we want to be part of solving those and we will make some practical propositions to solve them.Please use Chrome browser for a more accessible video playerAsked about the UK's threat to trigger Article 16 and suspend the Protocol, Mr Timmermans added:"That's up to them to do, that's what they could do if they want to, but our focus is on finding solutions.

"Why not just try and find practical solutions? We will make some propositions tomorrow and hopefully they will be met with a positive reaction from the British side." Irish deputy prime minister Leo Varadkar warned the UK's requests would be"very hard to accept" in Brussels.

Maybe the problem is EU has already proved not to play fair with current Ireland protocol. As Von der Leyen did.
