PM Bettel gestures to the empty podium next to him saying he wanted to thank PM Johnson for today’s talks. He says it was ‘important to listen to concrete proposals to avoid a no deal Brexit’. Says: ‘We need more than just words. We need a legally operable text to work on ASAP.’ 
PM Bettel says that another extension ‘is only an option if it serves a purpose’ and not just for the sake of it. He warns the absent PM Johnson: ‘You can’t hold a future hostage for party political gains. The clock is ticking - use your time wisely.’
PM Bettel says PM Johnson told him there won’t be a 2nd ref. Says he wants a deal but that he isn’t sure Boris can even get any agreement through Parliament. He says: ‘Don’t put the blame on us because now they don’t know how to get out of this situation they put themselves in.’
