European commission did today what it was expected to do they launch infringement proceedings against london and it was a clear signal saying that they are not willing to play. Londons game that they are ready to negotiate but at the same time that they are not ready to to adopt what the game or to to do what london is demanding and of course the European Union understands the boards jonsons by raising the stakes hes trying to put to increase the pressure on the European Union to agree to his conditions but i think also that start to say that the European Union that britain needs to deal more than the p. N. Union does and that its why brussels wants to continue the negotiations from a position of strength a bigger to seems like a very dicey approach that the u. K. Has taken to mean this is such a decisive phase in the Divorce Proceedings the british leadership prepared to walk away with no deal. Well certainly theyre trying. To explain that trying for it to look that way however we also know that theres a lot of pressure from within britain for example Industry Manufacturing industry calming effect or as i read begging the u. K. Government to get a deal because we could see more or less the extinction of manufacturing at least of those like the car makers who really depend on the close relations and close trade with the European Union but. Also wants to hold his own he was elected as a leader who said we are going to leave do or die and who also accused the reason maze government of not really meaning to walk away without a do you always said that this was the mistake of the make of them and it always looked like they needed desperately a deal and now they are really trying to show well if we if you dont give us what we want well then we will be prepared to walk away well alexandra time is running out there is a hard deadline at the end of this year is there enough time for all parties to overcome their differences what are you hearing in brussels. Well time is running all thats what we hear here in brussels at the same time i think that we cannot rule out any think at this moment what we saw in the last weeks or complaints from bourse sides saying that you know a coup the accusing each other. For not being the germans to make progress. Negotiators chief negotiators saying that they are disappointed and at the same time they also say that they still see a chance for a deal in the and tell her we also have to add that its important for the European Union dont to give in to the brics to tears not to encourage should those within the law cool my belief that the future would. Be better outside of the European Union and im going to just a quick follow up you leaders are meeting right now for a 2 day summit to focus on Foreign Affairs is it being eclipsed by this latest decision by the commission. I dont think so what we heard from the leaders arriving here. Its not on the agenda we cannot rule out one of the leaders will bring that up but theyre hot they have all their important topics on the edge and the same. Theyve been talking about it for weeks but so far no sanctions have been imposed and the tensions in the Eastern Mediterranean still lation with starkey oh also a very huge issue so i dont think that this developments today is going to overshadow their meeting in brussels alexander phenomena reporting in brussels and better get my ass for you in a london a thank you both for you continued coverage want to tell you now about some of the other stories making news around the world.
