I attended the special meeting of the European Council on Sunday, 25 November in Brussels. I had no formal bilateral meetings at this Summit.
However I had the opportunity to engage informally with my EU counterparts in the margins of the Summit.
The focus of our exchanges was on Brexit, where I took the opportunity to thank them for their solidarity in relation to our concerns and the need to ensure a legally operable backstop in the Withdrawal Agreement.
