UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has stated on numerous occasions that he is willing to pull the United Kingdom out from the European Union with or without a deal. Brussels, in turn, has repeatedly underlined its commitment to the already agreed deal with former UK PM Theresa May, which, however, was blocked by the British Parliament three times.
The United Kingdom would suffer the most from a no-deal Brexit scenario, European Commission spokeswoman Natasha Bertaud stated at a regular daily briefing on Monday. Bertaud added that the bloc, on the other hand, is fully prepared for this possibility.
