Brexit HIGHLIGHTS: Britain, EU reach deal; Boris Johnson hails ‘great’ move

Britain and the European Union said Thursday that they have struck an outline Brexit deal after days of intense see-saw negotiations though it must still be formally approved by the bloc and ratified by the European and U.K. Parliaments. Hours before a summit of all 28 EU national leaders, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker tweeted: “We have one! It’s a fair and balanced agreement for the EU and the UK and it is testament to our commitment to find solutions.” British Prime Minister Boris Johnson tweeted that the two sides had struck a “great new deal” and urged U.K. lawmakers to ratify it in a special session on Saturday.
