Prime minister Stefan Löfven belongs to the group of EU leaders who received phone calls on Tuesday. Germany’s Angela Merkel and France’s Emmanuel Macron were in place to move other commitment to personally receive the prime minister Theresa May in Berlin, respectively, Paris.
Mays priority by the heads of state and government is not so much to talk about. Everyone listens to Angela Merkel. Emmanuel Macron, has profiled itself as the biggest opponent to let Brexit continue to steal time from the EU’s other work.
attracted Macron to become a modern variant of Charles de Gaulle, the French president, who twice stopped the british from becoming members of the EU. What the union won or lost economically on de Gaulle’s strategy during the 1960s is unknown. If the british are now left without contracts, the effects would, however, quickly become apparent for the French.
There, as well as solidarity with vulnerable Ireland, talking to Macron straightens herself up in the UNION ranks and grants a deferred Brexit.
Theresa May want to have an extension to 30 June, with the hope to reach a solution already in the middle of may to avoid having to arrange an EU elections in the Uk. Other member states choose namely their Meps from 23 to 26 may.
is likely not on the 30 June. That date is a clear risk that the Brexit is overshadowing the election campaign, which no one wants. In addition, it becomes legally questionable if the Uk remains a member after the election, but to have participated in it. For example, previous Ukipledaren Nigel Farage threatened to go to court if not he will be allowed to vote and stand as candidates in the election.
Donald Tusk, president of the European council, would like to see the Uk remain a member for a longer period, but with the ability to get off earlier, if the british parliament to agree on what you want for Brexit. This speaks for an extension of up to twelve months.
the Danger then is that Theresa May may have been replaced with, for example, Boris Johnson, who probably do not feel bound by anything that the EU and the Uk have so far agreed. In addition, the conservative Toryledamoten Jacob Rees-Mogg said that the Uk should become a troublesome member, and a veto in EU decisions if the country is forced to be left behind.

It is a completely different approach than the british government had so far during the Brexitprocessen. Wednesday’s emergency meeting must therefore find a solution with both a belt and suspenders that bind the Uk to the earlier settlements.
Furthermore, the EU summit only alleviate short-term problems with avtalslöst Brexit. The really big knot, one of the british parliament on a Brexitlösning, can only be resolved in London. Therefore, the need Theresa May compromise more in order to get with the Labour party on the train.
