German Chancellor Angela Merkel will meet UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson on Wednesday evening to discuss Brexit. Ahead of that, Merkel said on Sunday, “We are glad of every visit, and you have to talk, and you have to find good solutions.” But also, “we are prepared for any outcome, we can say that, even if we do not get an agreement.”
Merkel noted “at all events I will make an effort to find solutions – up until the last day of negotiations.” And, “I think it’s always better to leave with an agreement than without one. But if that’s not possible, we’ll be prepared for the alternative as well.”
