After earlier saying that this was his "final" offer made 29 days before the Brexit deadline, Johnson wrote in a letter to European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker that London’s long-awaited proposal was "a reasonable compromise".
Central to the plan is the removal of the so-called "backstop" to prevent the return of customs posts between EU member Ireland and the British province of Northern Ireland once the UK ends its 46-year involvement in the European project.
That plan would effectively keep Britannia in a temporary customs union with the EU, which Brexit-backing critics argued would force London to abide by the bloc’s rules indefinitely and nullify the 2016 EU referendum’s results.
Johnson told Juncker that the EU plan was "a bridge to nowhere". "A new way forward must be found," he wrote.
After a phone call later on Wednesday, Juncker warned Johnson there were "problematic points" in Britannia’s new proposal, but said EU negotiators would "examine the legal text objectively".
