EU leaders call for post-Brexit trade talks to continue

EU leaders have called for post-Brexit trade talks to continue beyond the end of the week - the deadline suggested by UK PM Boris Johnson. At a two-day summit in Brussels, they called on the UK to "make the necessary moves" towards a deal.

EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier said fresh intensive talks



should aim to reach a deal around the end of October. But his UK counterpart said he is disappointed by the EU's approach.

Both sides are calling on each other to compromise on key issues, including fishing and limits on government subsidies to businesses.
