Britain - EU relations: EU welcomes Johnson by rebuffing his Brexit plans - by Eszter Zalan
The EU has welcomed Boris Johnson, the next UK prime minister, with
scepticism as the new Conservative leader promised his party peers to
deliver Brexit by the end of October.
The former mayor of London and ex-foreign minister Johnson won 66 percent of the votes in the Conservative party leadership race to succeed Theresa May, against foreign minister Jeremy Hunt, party officials announced on Tuesday (23 July).
French president Emmanuel Macron and the next president of the EU commission, Ursula von der Leyen, immediately congratulated Johnson, and said they looked forward to constructive talks with him.
"I'm looking forward to having a good working relationship with him," von der Leyen told a joint news conference with Macron in Paris.
"We have the duty to deliver something which is good for people in Europe and in the UK," she said.
Von der Leyen has earlier stated that she would be open to an extension of the Brexit deadline, currently 31 October, but that would have to be decided by EU leaders at their summit in mid-October.
While EU leaders want to avoid a no-deal Brexit, most of them are frustrated with the ongoing political crisis in the UK.
