U.K. Prime Minister Boris Johnson and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen plan to meet in person in coming days as they push to secure a post-Brexit trade deal.
“We agreed that the conditions for finalizing an agreement are not there due to the remaining significant differences on three critical issues: level playing field, governance and fisheries,” the two said in a joint statement after a speaking to each other on Monday.
“We asked our chief negotiators and their teams to prepare an overview of the remaining differences to be discussed in a physical meeting in Brussels in the coming days,” they said.
