A deal to ensure a smooth British exit from the European Union is still possible, but the risk of a no-deal is also “very real”, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said on Wednesday.
“There is very little time left. The prime minister has told us he wants a deal, but he will leave with or without a deal,” Juncker told the plenary in Strasbourg. “The risk of a no deal is very real,” said Juncker, who met British prime minister Boris Johnson on Monday in Luxembourg.
