Schinas was referring to the parliament’s unprecedented step on Tuesday of voting a choice of alternative solutions to the near-dead divorce deal May reached with Brussels after 17 months of talks. But none of the eight options secured a majority and another vote has been set for Monday on some of the proposals.
Belgian Prime Minister Charles Michel told journalists in Brussels that without a solution from Britain, EU leaders will meet again on April 10 or 11 to discuss next steps.
