French European Affairs minister says a Brexit deal still possible

French European Affairs junior minister Clement Beaune said on Wednesday that a Brexit deal was still possible.

"(A deal) is still possible. We are working on it", Beaune told France' Public Senat television.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson warned the European Union on Wednesday it must scrap demands that he said were unacceptable if there was to be a Brexit trade deal and avoid a turbulent break-up in three weeks.
