EU would not oppose extending Brexit talks, Juncker said
By EUobserver
No EU state would oppose a British demand for an extension of Brexit talks beyond the March 29 cut-off date, European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker told German daily Stuttgarter Zeitung Monday. "Any decision to ask for more time lies with the UK. If such a request were to be made, no one in Europe would oppose it," he said, adding he has no time limit in mind for an extension.
