British Prime Minister Boris Johnson will hold talks with EU Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in Brussels on Wednesday evening, in a last-ditch attempt to break the deadlock in negotiations on post-Brexit trade relations, just three weeks before the year-end deadline.

“I look forward to welcoming UK Prime Minister @BorisJohnson tomorrow evening. We will continue our discussion on the Partnership Agreement,” von der Leyen said on Twitter on Tuesday evening.
