EU Parliament Won't Accept Brexit Deal Threatening Four EU Freedoms
TEHRAN (Tasnim) - The European Parliament will not accept an agreement for Britain's exit from the European Union that would endanger any of the four EU freedoms, including the freedom of movement of people, parliament's negotiator Guy Verhofstadt said on Tuesday.
Verhofstadt spoke to reporters after meeting Britain's minister in charge of leaving the EU, David Davis.
"It is impossible to find a solution that would destroy the so-called four freedoms," Verhofstadt said, according to Reuters.
"These four freedoms are key, they are a basic element of the European Union: the freedom of movement of goods, services, capital and of people. We will certainly never accept whatever development where these four freedoms at put at risk," he said.
