UK prime minister Boris Johnson will be in a call with European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen later in the day
- UK and EU heads to meet June 15 to try to break the Brexit trade talk deadlock
- UK, EU leaders high-level call scheduled for 1230 GMT on 15 June

The latest developments is that the EU has resigned to the fact that the UK will not extend the transition period but have kept negotiations open until October.
