Talk of deadlock is exaggerated, says Donald Tusk
EU President Donald Tusk
Brussels - Egypt Today
Reports of deadlock over Brexit negotiations may have been exaggerated, European Council President Donald Tusk has said after a Brussels summit.
Progress was "not sufficient" to begin trade talks with the UK now but that "doesn't mean there is no progress at all", he said.
EU leaders will start internal talks on trade, paving the way for negotiations to begin, possibly in December.
The PM said there was "some way to go" but she was "optimistic".
The end of the two-day summit in Brussels saw positive comments from some EU leaders and from the prime minister - despite her 27 counterparts ruling out starting formal trade talks with the UK for now.
Mr Tusk told reporters: "My impression is that the reports of the deadlock between the EU and the UK have been exaggerated."
