EU "영국과 합의 이를 길 있다"...브렉시트 미래협상 진전 시사

The UK and EU are still struggling to agree a post-Brexit trade deal,... with just a few weeks left before Britain leaves the EU.
They've made some progress,.. but reached no breakthrough.
For more on this and other news from around the world, we turn to our Lee Kyung-eun.
Kyung-eun, what's the latest?
Dami, the EU's president said the ongoing talks with the UK were "still very difficult",... but the two sides have managed to move forward on most issues.
They are still apart on two key areas: fair competition regulations and fishing rights over UK waters.
However, given the progress, she added the next few days would be critical,... in possibly reaching a last-minute agreement.
"...there is a path to an agreement now. The path may be very narrow but it is there and it is therefore our responsibility to continue trying."
On the same day, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said, the EU should "see sense" and agree a post-Brexit trade deal.
He added that the bloc should recognize U.K. sovereignty to control its own laws and fishing grounds.
Negotiations have been ongoing for several months to avoid a no-deal Brexit.
