Two-week deadline in Britain to clarify how much money to pay after Brexit


The European Union has today set a two-week deadline in Britain to clarify its commitments, particularly in terms of the financial package, after the conclusion of the sixth round of the Brexit talks.

EU negotiator chief Michel Barnier has confirmed that Brussels urgently requires answers and "clear and honest" commitments on behalf of the British government. He responded with a simple "yes" when asked by journalists whether Europe is giving two weeks to London to clarify how much money she intends to give when she leaves the Union.

Only this would other countries be able to accept at the summit to be held on 14 and 15 December that the second phase of the negotiations be launched. In contrast to the ongoing talks, the second phase will also include the EU's "future relationship" with Britain, which, for its part, is looking forward to concluding agreements to continue its trade without hindrance after the Brexit.

"We should now move forward to move on to discussing our future relationship," said British Secretary David Davies, responsible for Brexit. But Barnier insisted that "an absolute priority" for Brussels is to find an agreement on the three "thorny issue": the "bill" that Britain will pay, the issue of the rights of European citizens living and working in that country and the issue of the reintroduction of the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland.

The British government has agreed to include in the law the date on which Brexit will take place

The British government announced on Thursday that it would set by law the date and time of the UK's withdrawal from the European Union, trying to distract the concerns of Brexit supporters, who expressed fears that the slow pace of negotiations between London and Brussels and resistances in divorce can cause delays.

The government under Teresa Mie announced that it has tabled an amendment to the law on leaving the EU, which is being debated in parliament, whereby the divorce will come into effect at 23:00 GMT Greenwich on 29 March 2019 March 30, 2019, Greece).

"We listened to the citizens and members of the House (the Communities) and we made this change in order to put an end to any confusion as to what the term" exit day "means," the British Minister responsible for the Braxton, David Davis.
