Remarks from German Foreign Minister Heiko Maas, speaking to Germany's Funke media group, reported via Reuters
- "A postponement makes sense if it leads to an orderly Brexit"
Adds:
- can only be a solution on the basis of the Withdrawal Agreement
(referring to May's deal, which has been shunned twice by the UK parliament)
- "But it is also clear that it is especially important to us that the European elections run properly."
(referring here to May 23, the date of European Parliament elections)
