EU leaders have expressed hope on Friday (13 December) that British
prime minister Boris Johnson's decisive electoral victory will bring
clarity on the UK side on Brexit, and negotiations can start quickly on
the future relations.
EU leaders sounded relieved that Johnson's success might speed up the Brexit process that has been in deadlock for months, as they reconvened on Friday for their summit in Brussels.
A divided British parliament has been unable to ratify the withdrawal negotiated with the EU, some three and a half years after the initial referendum 'Leave' result in 2016.
"It is a good result for the UK to have a stable a majority," Luxembourgish prime minister Xavier Bettel told reporters.
"No excuses, he [Johnson] needs to deliver now," Bettel warned.
