Michel Barnier says of the EU: 'This cooperation is both unique and unprecedented and it's made possible by the trust between member states. This trust does not fall from the sky. There is no magic wand.'
Barnier: 'To negotiate an ambitious relationship with the UK, which we all want, we need more realism on what's possible and what's not.'
Barnier: 'We know that the UK is not ready to accept the free movement of people, the jurisdiction of the ECJ and the charter of fundamental rights. This means that the UK cannot take part in the European Arrest Warrant.'
Barnier on UK membership of the ECHR: 'A comprehensive future partnership requires a common commitment to human rights and confidence that the other side will respect them. We expect this commitment to be maintained.'
