00:17Belgium: Juncker receives May in Brussels ahead of Brexit meeting
President of the European Commission Jean-Claude Juncker welcomed UK Prime Minister Theresa May in Brussels on Wednesday, ahead of an emergency summit to discuss Brexit deal negotiations on Sunday, November 25.
The meeting follows the UK cabinet approval of a draft withdrawal agreement between the UK and the EU, which led to several high-level resignations.
May has vowed to stick to her contentious draft of the European Union divorce deal, as dissenting lawmakers in her party tried to trigger a leadership challenge.
Brexit Secretary Dominic Raab and Secretary of State for Work and Pensions Esther McVey have resigned, along with other representatives, over the Brexit agreement.
