DAVOS, Switzerland (Reuters) – European Union Economic Affairs Commissioner Pierre Moscovici said on Wednesday the risk of a no-deal Brexit had increased in last few weeks and it was up to the British to tell the EU where they wanted to go.
With Britain due to leave the bloc on March 29, Moscovici told Reuters at the World Economic Forum in Davos that the EU was ready and waiting, and nobody wanted a no deal outcome.
