The EU gives UK two Brexit options which depend on what happens in the British parliament
Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May holds a news briefing after meeting with EU leaders in Brussels, Belgium on March 22, 2019.
"April 12 is the key date in terms of the UK deciding whether to hold European parliament elections," EU Council president and summit host Donald Tusk said, announcing the arrangement. And French President Emmanuel Macron, who had taken a harder public line than some of his colleagues declared: "The responsibility now lies with the British, and I think that's the big achievement of the day."
It still remains far from clear that May will be able to get the withdrawal agreement she signed last November past the House of Commons, and she turned up the heat on her own MPs after the Brexit talks.
