Brussels, Apr 21 (EFE) .- (Camera: Leo Rodríguez) Providing more digital services and high-speed internet to rural areas of the European Union, where one in four Europeans live, is key to create jobs and avoid depopulation, as defended by the vice president of the European Commission Dubravka Suica in an interview with Efe.FOOTAGE FROM THE INTERVIEW WITH THE VICE PRESIDENT OF THE EUROPEAN COM
European Commission Vice-President Maros Sefcovic leaves post-Brexit trade talks with Michael Gove in London. The UK had imposed a deadline of last week's EU summit for a deal, and Prime Minister Boris Johnson said he was ready to walk away and prepare for a no-deal exit after five decades of EU membership. However, senior minister Michael Gove said on Sunday 18 October 2020 he was still hopeful there would be an agreement, telling TV interviewers the door remained "ajar" if the EU would change its position.

President of the European Council Donald Tusk declared that the UK will not be allowed to access the EU single market without accepting the freedom of movement of citizens, during a press conference in Brussels on Wednesday. "There will be no single market a la carte," he stressed. The announcement comes after all the EU leaders met for the first time since the British referendum result last Friday.
French President Francois Hollande said the UK must accept several preconditions if it is to access the single market following any exit from the European Union, during a press conference held in Brussels on Wednesday. Hollande also suggested the UK would have to pay direct costs to the EU, similar to Norway, in order to access the single market. The French president also ruled out any "prenegotiation" period, urging the new UK Conservative government to trigger Article 50 as soon as possible.
