Germany's Röttgen says that German position on Brexit has not changed

Comments by senior German lawmaker Nortbert Röttgen

• New rhetoric from Westminster has not changed Germany's position on Brexit
• As long as there no solutions to the border, the problem remains on the table
• There's no room for amending the withdrawal agreement

As mentioned earlier, it comes as no coincidence that Germany is clarifying its position ahead of talks between Johnson and Merkel in Berlin later today.
