German Minister of State for Europe Michael Roth
The European Union and Germany's government will not block an extension of the post-Brexit transition period, but an extension alone will not solve the problems on hand, European Affairs Minister Michael Roth said on Friday.
"If that solves problems and if a few more months are needed to negotiate the details of future relations, then it will certainly not fail because of the EU-27 and because of us in Berlin," Roth told German broadcaster WDR.
"But an extension alone does not solve the problems," he added." "There is no reasonable solution yet over a hard border between Ireland and Northern Ireland."
