European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker welcomed Theresa May for talks on 7 February 2019, where the Prime Minister pleaded with EU leaders to change the Brexit divorce deal she negotiated last year. She later met with Donald Tusk who caused a minor outcry when he said there was a “special place in hell” saved for those who support Brexit without considering a proper plan.
The condemnation came after an afternoon of Brexit meetings in Brussels.
