LONDON - British Prime Minister Boris Johnson wrote to European Council President Donald Tusk on Monday to propose replacing the Irish backstop with a commitment to put in place alternative arrangements by the end of a post-Brexit transition period.
Johnson, who has promised to take Britain out of the EU on Oct. 31 with or without a deal, said that he believed it was possible to reach an agreement and that doing so was his government’s “highest priority”. The backstop would force Britain to obey some EU rules if no other way could be found to keep the land border open between British-ruled Northern Ireland and EU member Ireland. Dublin says this is crucial to maintaining peace on the island.
