British Brexit negotiator David Davis says the four days of Brexit negotiations this week will have to drive forward "all the issues" instead of just centering on the divorce proceedings that the EU wants to focus on.
Britain wants to determine a future trade relationship with the bloc in lockstep with obtaining an orderly separation from it. The EU, however, wants to have "sufficient progress" on a clear divorce first with Britain before looking at a future relationship.
Davis says "we want to lock in the points where we agree, unpick the areas where we disagree, and make further progress on the whole range of issues." He says the goal remains the same, a deal in the best interests of both sides and business in the UK and Europe.
