European Commission - Statement
Statement by European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen
following her meeting with UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson
Brussels, 9 December 2020
We had a lively and interesting discussion on the state of play across the list of outstanding issues.
We gained a clear understanding of each other´s positions. They remain far apart.
We agreed that the teams should immediately reconvene to try to resolve these essential issues.
We will come to a decision by the end of the weekend.
