The President of the European Council, Donald Tusk, today asked British Prime Minister Theresa May for "concrete proposals" to break the impasse in the Brexit negotiations.
Tusk said that "new facts are needed" for talks to continue. The leaders of the 28 EU member states will gather tomorrow for a dinner before the two-day summit in Brussels.
"I hope that Prime Minister May will present something creative enough tomorrow to resolve the deadlock," he said.
Tomorrow, Tusk will chair a meeting on Brexit where May will present her latest views to her colleagues before they continue discussing it separately.
Great Britain is supposed to leave the EU on March 29 next year, but an agreement on this must be reached much earlier so that the parliaments of the member countries have time to ratify it.
