European Council President Donald Tusk suggests Brexit delay of up to year

London: European Council President Donald Tusk says the EU should consider offering the UK a “flexible” delay to Brexit of up to a year, with the option of leaving earlier if a deal is ratified. He said there was “little reason to believe” a Brexit deal would be approved by the extension deadline that UK Prime Minister Theresa May has requested — 30 June, the BBC reported. Writing to EU leaders, he said any delay should have conditions attached. It is up to EU members to vote on the proposals at a summit on Wednesday. (IANS)
