The President of the European Council, Donald Tusk offers to the leaders of the EU member states to approve “flexible” version of the Brexit extension. Donald Tusk wrote a letter of invitation to the heads of EU member states at the summit.
“…I believe we should also discuss an alternative, longer extension. The flexibility would allow to terminate the extension automatically, as soon as both sides have ratified the Withdrawal Agreement. The UK would be free to leave whenever it is ready. And the EU27 would avoid repeated Brexit summits,” Tusk said in the letter.
In addition, Tusk noted several conditions, including:
– no re-opening of the Withdrawal Agreement;
– no start of the negotiations on the future, except for the Political Declaration;
– the UK would have to maintain its sincere cooperation also during this crucial period, in a manner that reflects its situation as a departing member state.
“However, it should be remembered that the United Kingdom will remain a Member State with full rights and obligations,” said Tusk.
As The Journalist reported, Dutch government agreed to postpone Brexit.
