(Worthy News) – The U.K.’s chief Brexit negotiator said Sunday before renewed talks that a trade deal with the European Union may not succeed, but he was still hopeful of a resolution.

The two sides say any post-Brexit deal must be agreed upon by mid-November in time for it to be ratified by year-end. [ Source: Washington Times (Read More…) ]
