Dutch PM Rutte: Britain must tell us when they want

Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte warned on Wednesday that time is running out to reach a deal before Britain leaves the European Union and urged the British to make up their minds.

"It is now up to the British to indicate what they want," he told reporters in The Hague in reaction to Tuesday's vote against Prime Minister Theresa May's Brexit deal. "We have a little bit more time, but it is really going down to the wire."

"We still hope to reach an agreement before they leave at the end of March," Rutte said. (Reporting by Anthony Deutsch; Editing by Catherine Evans)
