Talk of a 'no deal' Brexit grows as deadline looms
|
[AlAhram] The language on both sides has hardened, and both have called on the other to compromise ahead of a meeting that is widely seen as a last throw of the dice
Talk of a chaotic British split from the European Union
 ...the successor to the Holy Roman Empire, only without the Hapsburgs and the nifty uniforms and the dancing...
grew on Tuesday with just three weeks left to break a deadlock in trade deal negotiations, with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson
...pro-Brexit British prime minister, succeeding no-Brexit Theresa May. BoJo is noted as much for his sparkling personality and his hair as for his Conservative policies....
warning that the two sides may have to accept "no deal".
The EU's chief negotiator, Michel Barnier, told a meeting of the bloc's ministers that he believed a no-deal scenario at the end of the year was now more likely than an agreement on trade ties, an EU official and two diplomats told Rooters.
Deepening the gloom, Irish Prime Minister Micheal Martin said that unless there was a breakthrough "in the next day or two", EU leaders meeting in Brussels on Thursday and Friday would have to discuss contingency plans for the economic disruption a rupture with no trade accord would bring.
