British Brexit Secretary Davis Davis launches official talks in Brussels on Monday, that will forge the terms on with the UK will divorce from the European Union and set its ties with the zone for the coming years.
Almost a year since Britons shocked the world by voting on June 23 to sever ties with their main trading partner and almost three months since PM Theresa May triggered a two-year countdown to Brexit in March 2019, there is almost no clarity to what the future holds for both parties.
Even the British premier's political survivability is in question. Theresa May's conservatives lost their majority in a general election 10 days ago.
Davis is slated to meet chief EU arbitrator Michel Barnier at the European Commission's headquarters. They are scheduled to give a joint press conference following dialogue among their teams that will last seven hours.
Both parties attempted to downplay expectations for the possible results after a day of discussions. EU diplomats hope that the first meeting can enhance the talks' atmosphere following heated exchanges.
Davis conceding to Monday's agenda led some EU officials to perceive that May's government may be beginning to come around how the Brexit talks should proceed on Brussel's terms.
