UK PM Johnson was told he's in need of a miracle as he took his appeal to reopen Brexit negotiations to unwavering President Macron on Thursday.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and German Chancellor Angela Merkel address the media in Berlin on Wednesday.Having persuaded many in European capitals the threat of a so-called no deal exit is real, he is this week making his first attempts to sound out what sort of a deal could be on offer and whether it is something he can sell to lawmakers at home

That was seen by British officials as a sign that the EU may end its refusal to discuss changes to an existing exit deal, which has been rejected by Britain's parliament three times. "Miracles should never be ruled out, but I'm skeptical we can simply pluck something out of the air that guarantees Ireland has no hard border and at the same time the EU has control over what enters its market," he told German broadcaster SWR.
