The EU's Chief Negotiator: Brexit Talks Are Still in Deadlock

STEPANAKERT, OCTOBER 12, ARTSAKHPRESS: He said there was "new momentum" in the process but there was still "deadlock" over how much the UK pays when it leaves, which he called "disturbing".

Mr Davis said the UK still wanted to be given the green light for trade talks when EU leaders meet next week.

The UK's Brexit Secretary David Davis urged EU leaders at the summit, on 19 and 20 October, to give Mr Barnier a mandate to start trade talks and to "build on the spirit of cooperation we now have".
