UK foreign secretary on Brexit extension request

(5 Apr 2019) British Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt said Friday the UK has "zero appetite" for European Parliament elections. He was speaking on the sidelines of a G7 Foreign Ministers meeting in Dinard, in France. UK Prime Minister Theresa May has requested a delay in Brexit until June 30 to allow more time for an orderly departure from the European Union. But that would mean taking part in European Parliament elections next month. Hunt said that no one wants a lengthy delay to Brexit, and that May is "leaving no stone unturned" to break the impasse Find out more about AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/HowWeWork Twitter:   / ap_archive   Facebook:   / aparchives   ​​ Instagram:   / apnews   You can license this story through AP Archive: http://www.aparchive.com/metadata/you...
