EUROPEAN HEADLINES
BBC Europe – Brexit: Germany rules out informal negotiations. There can be no talks on Brexit before the UK formally begins the process to quit the EU, Germany’s government says. The UK would be given a “reasonable amount of time”, but there must be no impasse, a spokesman said. The leaders of Germany, France and Italy meet later in Berlin, with the speed of negotiations for Britain’s exit high on the agenda.

Brexit trap. The British are not hurrying up to submit an official application for exiting the EU. They even talk about 2017 as a possible deadline for it! They will probably want to keep a broad access to the EU single market, and to cut off the inflow of immigrants from their country. This would hit Poles. |
