Comments by Irish foreign minister Simon Coveney
- Some of the amendments passed by British parliament is not helpful for negotiations
- But should not panic about amendments, there is a capacity for it to be changed
- UK still needs to come up with a backstop that works
- It is unfortunate that people are trying to undermine the Brexit white paper
Well, sure looks like they're not in the mood to discuss anything with the UK at this point. And even if they do, it remains unlikely that there will be a compromise on the solution to the Irish backstop.
But a can kicked down the road is well, a can kicked down the road I guess.
