European Union ( EU) Council president, Donald Tusk, met German chancellor Angela Merkel today to discuss plans for the Brexit summit next month in Bratislava. The two leaders agreed that they would work together on a range of issues including trade, security and migration as well as how best to deal with Britain’s exit from the EU. Although Germany has announced this week that it is willing to give the UK a ‘’special status’’, the wider EU outlined that access to its single market will only be available if free movement is maintained.
