Politicians from the European Union and the U.K. say a post-Brexit trade deal could be struck this week, even as they put the onus on each other to make the final concessions.
French European Affairs Minister Clement Beaune said he hoped to see an agreement “in the next few days” and called on negotiators to take the leap required. His remarks follow a similarly upbeat tone from British ministers over the weekend.
