the extension of The Brexit-the transition phase through the end of the year, according to estimates by the European Commission from the table. Great Britain had reaffirmed on Friday in the meeting of the competent body be no to an extension of the deadline, said Vice-President Maros Sefcovic. “In my view, this is definitely the end of the debate.”
in order for the pressure to bring the end of the year, an agreement on the future relations between the UK and the EU is about to grow. The UK was left at the end of January from the EU, but remains in a transition phase in the EU internal market and the customs Union. The EU was an extension of the deadline in order to have more time for negotiations. The United Kingdom applies but for months strictly. No agreement is achieved in the transition phase, a tough economic break with customs and other trade-is expected to be barriers.
Sefcovic said he had stressed that the EU place to stay for a extension to open. But it could not have been any British negotiator, Michael Gove, in his rejection clearer, added Sefcovic. Gove did this on the grounds that the British citizens it was been given as a promise in the election campaign. He had made the attitude of the British government very, very clearly.
Gove said on Twitter that he had confirmed in conversation with Sefcovic “formally”, that the UK will not prolong the transitional phase. “We are on 1. January 2021 retrieve the control, and our political and economic independence win again,“ wrote Gove.
It was the last regular meeting of the Joint Committee of the European Union and the UK, before the Option to renew expires at the end of the month. Would be possible after the withdrawal of the Treaty with great Britain, a one-time extension of one or two years.
the leaders of The EU have agreed for Monday, and a video conference with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson to draw up an interim balance sheet to the negotiations on a trade and partnership agreements. Both sides agree that, so far, little has been achieved.
