Brexit: EU’s Barnier reportedly told EU envoys that three key outstanding issues remain open

Reuters, citing a source, reported that the EU's Brexit negotiator Michel Barnier told national EU envoys that there is no Brexit deal yet and the three key outstanding issues remain open.

The headlines kept the GBP/USD pair depressed near the lower end of its intraday trading range, with bears still awaiting some follow-through weakness below the 1.3400 round-figure mark.
