Britain makes trade deal with EU more difficult: Irish foreign minister | One America News Network

Britain is making it more difficult to reach a basic trade deal with the European Union by pushing through domestic legislation that undermines its international withdrawal treaty with the EU, Irish foreign Minister Simon Coveney said on Tuesday.

Speaking to reporters after EU ministers were briefed by the EU’s chief Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier on progress in talks, Coveney said many EU foreign ministers were starting to think that Britain did not want a deal with the EU.
“There is a growing sense that perhaps the United Kingdom does not want a deal and that it is more about managing the blame game as the negotiations fail,” Coveney said.
