Rutte relieved about the Brexit delay

brussels - Prime Minister Mark Rutte hopes that next week the British parliament can agree to the Brexit deal now that EU leaders have given British Prime Minister Theresa May an extension of the deadline. After…

According to Rutte, May 'made it clear' what the purpose of her request was to postpone the Brexit deadline of March 29. That was a requirement of the EU leaders, because they do not want to be kept on the line. 'She is going to present the withdrawal agreement for the third time and if the parliament agrees then they need time to implement everything. Then the British will leave the EU in an orderly manner on 22 May. '
