EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier has returned to Brussels from London to resume post-Brexit talks, but time has all but run out for a deal.
BRUSSELS: The EU and Britain’s chief Brexit negotiators will make a last-ditch bid to break months of deadlock on Sunday, as trade talks limp back to Brussels, surviving on borrowed time.
Michel Barnier and his UK counterpart David Frost will once again try to find common ground on the critical issues that have split both sides since talks began in March.
The extra time came after British Prime Minister Boris Johnson and EU chief Ursula von der Leyen held an emergency phone call on Saturday.
Both sides agreed that “significant differences” remained, but that talks should continue — at least until their next scheduled call on Monday.
