Barnier: UK cannot stall talks and refuse extension
By EUobserver
EU chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier said Friday that there has been little or no progress in talks on state aid and taxation, fundamental rights standards, fisheries, and the framework of the future trade deal. Meanwhile London refuses to extend the December 2020 deadline for an agreement. "The UK cannot refuse to extend the transition and at the same time slow down discussions on important areas," Barnier said.
