a contradiction phil because anything is possible at this point we really don t know how this is going to end even if the e.u. and the u.k. in this case theresa may find a deal this might be voted down by the british parliament and on the other hand i think it s also a means of increasing pressure on the u.k. saying that everybody else is prepared for a no deal scenario while leaving the door open for further negotiations sounds familiar that s because this is a negotiating strategy that s been widely used for example also with with russia over ukraine so this is not new this is actually a fairly common strategy to negotiate i don t think she functions that way she seemed to be very poised very calm as is her demeanor she didn t say much she just said she was hoping she had hoped actually that a deal would have been ready for this summit right here but we re only ninety percent there that s what she said so still a lot of work to be done and you know that s the line that most leaders a
