France’s minister for Europe has called on the European Union to take retaliatory measures against Britain if there is no resolution to the post-Brexit row over fishing licences by Dec. 10.

The European Commission has said the dispute must be settled by that deadline as it upped the pressure on the UK in the negotiations.
