The EU’s chief Brexit negotiator, Michel Barnier was out with some Brexit-related comments in the last hour and said that the possibility of a trade agreement with the UK remains.
Key quotes:
- Brexit talks have a narrow path to an agreement.
- There is very little time left in Brexit trade talks.
- The obstacles for UK trade agreement remain large.
- UK must respect the integrity of the EU.
- We respect the UK wish to control fishing grounds.
- We respect UK sovereignty.
The comments, however, did little to ease the intraday bearish pressure surrounding the British pound. In fact, the GBP/USD pair was last seen hovering near the lower end of its daily trading range, just above the key 1.3500 psychological mark.
