British Prime Minister Theresa May arrives in Brussels on Wednesday to try to agree a blueprint on post-Brexit ties with the European Union (EU), which the bloc’s diplomats said was being held up by disagreements over Gibraltar, fisheries and trade, according to Reuters.
All EU leaders are due to meet on Sunday to rubber-stamp their Brexit deal, consisting of Britain’s withdrawal agreement and an outline of the two sides’ new relationship after Britain exits the EU.
The fate of the withdrawal accord is uncertain.
British lawmakers are stepping up a fight over the terms of departure, with some trying to open the way for the country to change course.
While the EU is trying to discourage Britain from any renegotiation of the nearly 600 pages of dense legal text that forms the agreement, some of the remaining 27 member states also have issues with it.
