EU could pursue Brexit talks beyond end of year: diplomatic sources

Brussels:  The EU has rejected the latest UK offer on fishing but is ready to pursue a post-Brexit trade deal to the end of the year "or beyond", negotiator Michel Barnier told diplomats on Tuesday.

According to sources who were in a meeting with EU ambassadors, Barnier said he could not guarantee that there would be a deal but that "our door will remain open until the end of the year and beyond, as well".
