Germany to veto Brexit extension unless UK announces second referendum - The Telegraph
Citing the Bundestag's foreign affairs committee chair, James Rothwell, Brexit & Europe correspondent for The Daily Telegraph, reported that Germany would not agree to an extension to Brexit unless the UK announced a second referendum or a general election by October.
"In a sign that Berlin is near the end of its tether on Brexit, Norbert Rottgen, a former minister and senior MP for Germany's ruling CDU party, said there could be no extension to the Article 50 process unless the UK offered a concrete reason, such as a public vote," Rothwell wrote.
