[Manchester, UK, 1st Reuters]-British Prime Minister Johnson is expected to present a final proposal to sign a new withdrawal agreement with the European Union on the 2nd. If the EU does not respond to the proposal, it will also announce its intention to leave on 31 October without further negotiation.
Mr. Johnson will give a speech at the top of the ruling and conservative party conference, and the final proposal will be “sufficient and reasonable concessions” and will be sent to the EU. A stiff attitude regarding Brexit (withdrawal from the EU) is expected to persist.
According to an excerpt of a speech manuscript published by the Prime Minister's Office, Mr. Johnson is now three and a half years after the referendum that decided to leave the EU, “The people have begun to doubt that there is a power in this country that does not want to realize Brexit at all. Pointed out. “I will play Brexit on October 31, and then the country can move forward in 2020”.
The British newspaper Telegraph, as explained by the EU members from the UK, will the UK proposal maintain a special relationship between British Northern Ireland and the EU until 2025, after which Northern Ireland will continue to comply with EU rules? , Reported that it was decided to return to the rules of the United Kingdom.
The draft EU withdrawal agreement that former British Prime Minister May has agreed with the EU has a backstop (safety measure) to avoid the resurgence of a hard border (physical border) between Northern Ireland and EU member countries Ireland. The EU has refused to renegotiate, while Johnson asked for withdrawal.
A senior British government official said, “The government will either negotiate a new agreement or will work on a withdrawal without an agreement. No one will be involved in the postponement.” “European law is required to negotiate only with member governments under the EU law. We cannot negotiate with Congress. The government will not negotiate postponement. "
In his speech, if he postponed the withdrawal date as promised by the opposition and labor party leader Corbin, he would stay on for another three years and continue to contribute £ 1 billion ($ 1.23 billion) per month to the EU. He warned that it would continue to be uncertain for companies and the public for years to come.
“That ’s why we will leave the EU on October 31st. Let ’s do the Brexit. We can do that, we need it, and we ’ll do it.”
