Tusk: Possibility of flexible extension that lasts no longer than one year

The EU's Tusk on the Brexit deal

• We should discuss an alternative, longer extension
• If we fail to agree on any next extension, there would be a risk of an accidental no-deal Brexit
• Flexible extension would allow to terminate the extension automatically, as soon as both sides have ratified the withdrawal agreement

The EU continues to show some flexibility. There is a real will there to get this done and to move on, which is more than the EU really needs to offer. Yet the UK side continues to squander everything as the infighting never ends.
