Brexit: Europe's heads of state and government votes in the Parliament drama

Feb 16,2020 7:17 am

Angela Merkel said that the EU negotiate to have the Brexit offer

The Mood among Europe's heads of state and heads of government was triumphant. They had a deal on, and as each was made in Brussels, happy. But the EU, the relief is only of short duration?

the main cities in Europe, all eyes Will now decide on Westminster, for a rare Saturday session of Parliament , the fate of the revised Brexit offer.

"It is now a question of the faith in The British Parliament of his decision," said Germany's Angela Merkel .

they were here. Theresa May 's offer Three Times , was rejected by MPs. But More Than 90% of the New Deal is deal... Theresa May .

The Challenge , a permeable external EU border in Northern Ireland was the stone of stumbling, the required solution.

"He's colorful, sometimes'

Finally won the eurosceptic Boris Johnson , famous for poking fun at the EU bureaucracy, generous praise from the EU leaders at The Summit in Brussels.

One of his most fierce critics of the EU to the Brexit, the French President, Emmanuel Macron , said that Mr Johnson's "strategic thinking, his willingness to engage and the desire to hold out". He added that "he is colorful, sometimes".

The Summit Chairman Donald Tusk warm Mr. Johnson patted on the shoulder and Luxembourg PM Xavier Bettel beamed Him - after recently mocked Him for dodging a press conference.

After More Than three years of agonizing negotiations, the EU is of the opinion that it is limit now, an innovative solution for the North of Ireland .

In one-on-one talks with the Irish Prime Minister (PM) Leo Varadkar , before The Summit , Boris Johnson accepted that Northern Ireland could, to keep the EU standards and have a unique customs control system.

It means, in fact, a customs border in the Irish Sea , with the new controls on goods in the Northern Irish ports and Belfast airport.

goods destined for The Republic of Ireland to the EU under the EU tariff regime.

The special arrangement was required by both sides' commitment to the 1998 "Good Friday agreement". The peace agreement requires that there is no "hard" limit on The Island of Ireland .

But the Brexit offer the UK would take from the EU single market and customs Union , often described as "hard" Brexit.

What's next?

So much for the legal formalities. The big question now is whether Mr Johnson can get The Deal through The House of Commons.

on A Day of high drama expected, like the vote on a Knife Edge . The government's recent suspension of Parliament ruled illegal by the Supreme Court angered many members.

It was a discomfort leaders between the EU, if you are asked what you would do if Westminster refused this offer.

he Would grant a third extension of the Brexit Negotiations ?

Mr Varadkar was asked if there was an EU Plan B . His answer: "Plan B is not a deal. We do not hope that to happen. "

It was not a guarantee for a further extension, he said.

The pressure to meet the 31. October deadline, it is in The Summit conclusions, the EU is to challenge, prepare you for The Deal "to enter into force on 1. November".

The offer can be in a transition period until the end of 2020. In contrast, a no-deal scenario, the UK would make a "third country" with an overnight stay, subject to EU customs duties and other barriers immediately.

The EU, Donald Tusk , not for the extension to exclude. But the President of Macron, said: "I do not believe that a new delay Will be agreed. I think we need to move to the end of the negotiations and discussions on the future of relations. "

A year is not much time for the EU to negotiate a trade deal with the UK free.

And The Risk of no deal Brexit has not disappeared.

Belgium alone could lose about 42,000 jobs in the worst-case scenario, according to a University of Leuven study. The port of Zeebrugge has over half of its trade with the UK.

in the Midst of the European sadness and frustration about Brexit, it is also a kind of optimism.

Mr Varadkar said that the EU had shown "tremendous solidarity" with Ireland , and he called it " a Union ", in which the small States are protected". And Ulrich Ladurner , Brussels correspondent for Germany, the time is daily, told the BBC: "Many Europeans feel Brexit has shown, the strength of the EU".
