Leo Varadkar hopes Brexit deal with EU during last week of November

If Britain's cabinet supports a draft divorce agreement struck by Brexit negotiators, a summit of European Union leaders will more than likely be held on Nov. 25, Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar said on Wednesday.

"Obviously a lot of things can go wrong today and over the next couple of days, but should the UK cabinet be in a position this afternoon to say that it is content with the text, it is proposed that the Commission taskforce would be in a position tonight perhaps to publish the text, with the possibility or probability of a European Council meeting around November 25," Varadkar told parliament.
