BREXIT EU ambassadors have convened on Sunday for talks over the
\nUK’s request to delay Brexit after October 31. According to DPA, Brussels’
\nanswer is not clear yet. The meeting focused
\nchiefly on the EU procedures of ratifying the UK’s withdrawal under the
\nagreement reached with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson. British Parliament
\non Saturday postponed debates over the Brexit agreement. The MPs wanted to
\nblock their country’s withdrawal from the union on October 31 without
\nstipulations regarding the transition because they believed the legislation needed
\ncould not be ratified in time. The chamber’s decision was received with
\novations by the thousands pro-Europeans gathered in front of Parliament to ask
\nfor a new Brexit referendum. The country’s Prime Minister Boris Johnson opposes
\na new delay but was forced by the Parliament vote to call on the European Union
\nfor a new extension of the procedure. <\/p>\n

\ncountry’s Defence Minister, claimed the mayor seat last year but the election
\noutcome had been invalidated through a court ruling. <\/p>\n
