EU's Barnier: Divorce with Britain comes first & future relationships after

EU's Barnier details the EU's Brexit positioning

  • Market access and trading will continue and will need to be based on a level playing field

  • Challenges of new external borders must be dealt with at an early stage

  • Negotiations should begin by removing current uncertainty surrounding the rights of of EU citizens in UK and vice versa

  • Rights of citizens will be an absolute priority from the start but will take several months to agree

  • UK must pay for what it committed to but not a euro more

  • Transitional arrangement with U?K may be necessary but must be limited in time, subject to EU laws and courts

There's more comments but it's the usual fluff. There's no real details on the important stuff like trade and financials. Earlier he uttered a potentially GBP positive comment by saying the EU's goal was a free trade agreement with the UK.
