EU, UK bring out the vitriol as Brexit deadline draws near

Some British officials have previously compared the European Union to Nazis and Soviets, and EU Council President Donald Tusk said there was "a special place in hell" for some Brexiteers. With negotiations on the U.K.'s departure terms from the EU hanging precariously in the balance at a time when silence seemed golden, both sides broke the spell Tuesday. It was a rhetorical question anyhow, since Tusk had already analyzed recent British behavior when it came to Brexit and decided that Johnson mainly wanted to head for the EU's exit door as soon as possible and pile all the blame for fraught negotiations heading toward failure onto Tusk and the EU.
