　　China News Service, November 23. According to the "Central News Agency" report on the 23rd, the EU and the UK trade talks are approaching the deadline, and the two sides are still in a stalemate. In order to avoid a no-deal Brexit, there is news that the EU will not rule out this week. Reach a temporary agreement.

Data map: On May 7, 2017, local time, Dover, UK, graffiti artist Banksy created a painting in which a worker is wiping a star from the EU 12-star flag, implying that the UK will leave European Union.

　　According to previous reports, the UK will withdraw from the European Union on January 31, 2020.

According to the regulations, there is an 11-month transition period, and the original regulations are still valid until the end of 2020.

During this period of time, Britain and the EU started negotiations on various agreements after Brexit.

　　However, the negotiations on a trade agreement between Britain and Europe have not gone smoothly.

Britain once set October 15 as the deadline for negotiations, but it was postponed to November 19 and failed to reach a consensus.

Since the European Parliament will still need at least 6 weeks to translate, review and vote on documents after the UK and Europe reach an agreement, whether the UK and Europe can achieve key progress this week has attracted much attention.

　　On November 23, the European Union reported that in order to avoid the failure of the UK and Europe to reach a trade agreement, the UK’s hard Brexit would cause economic and trade disorder. The UK and EU did not rule out reaching an interim agreement this week.

　　According to reports, traditionally, Europe enters the Christmas holiday in late December and the European Parliament will temporarily adjourn.

However, in response to Brexit, if a consensus is reached in the negotiations between the UK and Europe, the European Parliament intends to convene a special plenary meeting before the end of December to complete the required voting procedures. The current date tends to be December 28.

　　At present, the differences between the UK and the EU mainly revolve around two major issues. The first is the right to fish in British waters, and the second is the regulatory difference between the UK and the EU.

Some EU diplomats have stated that the UK must accept the EU’s requirements for the second issue before the EU will consider concessions on the issue of fishing rights, otherwise there is no need to talk about it.
