As European markets worry about a no-deal Brexit, British Prime Minister Boris Johnson has decided to unveil an ultimatum Brexit plan to the European Union last Wednesday.
This was the worst case scenario traders and financial experts were fearing, as this would mean there would be no compromise to trade between the European Union and the United Kingdom.
French president Emmanuel Macron said he would let know Boris Johnson if the EU accepts his deal. As the UK’s PM has the option to postpone the date of Brexit’s launch on October 19th, a special summit in Brussels on October 17th and 18th should finalize the deal. 

Johnson imposes the no-deal

As Boris Johnson was part of the Brexit campaign, the current prime minister has heavily insisted on finalizing a no-deal Brexit.
“After three and a half years people are beginning to feel that they are being taken for fools,” Johnson will say. “They are beginning to suspect that there are forces in this country that simply don’t want Brexit delivered at all.”, he said, reports Bloomberg.

According to him, his plan is “fair and reasonable compromise”, he said during the Conservative Party’s annual conference in Manchester. On October 6th, he promised a Brexit “done” by October 31st.

Irish border is the burning topic

Moreover, Boris Johnson has confirmed to the press that negotiating with the European Union was not an option on the table.
His plan has unveiled three main resolutions. First, the United Kingdom – including Northern Ireland, will reinstalled its separate British customs, just like before the Schengen space. Secondly, the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland will be reestablished in about four years.

While the BBC has compared Brexit’s final days to the last scene of Quentin Tarantino’s movie Reservoir Dogs, a French anonymous official confirmed to the BBC “that the negotiations should continue swiftly with Michel Barnier’s team in coming days, in order to evaluate at the end of the week whether a deal is possible that respects European Union principle.”.
So far, Johnson asserted that he was inflexible on the “two-border solution”, which could severely hinder both the UK and Ireland’s economies.
According to a study published by the Washington Post, reestablishing the border would cost €3.3 billion.
