Brexit: Ireland's Coveney says there is time to make sure negotiations on NI protocol will work

Ireland’s Foreign Minister Simon Coveney said on Thursday that there is still some time to make sure that negotiations on the Northern Ireland protocol will work, as reported by Reuters.

Meanwhile, the Telegraph reported earlier in the day that the European Union was ready to improve the offer to reduce customs checks at the Northern Ireland border.
