EU Approves Brexit Deal

HeadlineNov 26, 2018

The European Union has approved a Brexit agreement outlining the terms for the United Kingdom’s withdrawal from the European Union in March 2019. This is European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker, speaking with the BBC.

Jean-Claude Juncker: “This is the deal. This is the deal. I’m never changing my mind day after day. This is the best deal possible for Britain. And this is the only deal possible. So, if the House would say no, we would have no deal.”

British Prime Minister Theresa May still has to get the deal approved in Parliament, where members of both her Conservative Party and the opposition Labour Party have publicly condemned the agreement.
