European Council President Donald Tusk said in a new conference in Egypt that ” in the situation we are in, an extension would be a rational decision”, referring to Brexit. But he also noted that “Prime Minister May still believes she will be able to avoid this scenario”.
Tusk added that “for me, it’s absolutely clear that there is no majority in the House of Commons to approve a deal. We will face an alternative, chaotic Brexit, or an extension.”
And, “the less time there is until the 29th of March, the greater the likelihood of an extension. And this is an objective fact, not our plan or our objective, but an objective fact.”
