Mubasher: The Labour Party has criticized the approach of the ruling Conservative Party in the Brexit negotiations, calling it an "embarrassment".
This comes after the latest talks between European Commission president Jean-Claude Juncker and British Prime Minister Theresa May failed to reach a final agreement on a number of issues on Monday.
Both Juncker and May has assured that negotiations will continue, with the UK prime minister stressing that a solution will soon be reached.
Brexit Secretary David Davis told members of the British parliament that the government was close to concluding the first phase of talks, as reported by the BBC.

This has led to the Scottish First Minister Nicola Sturgeon objection, arguing that there are no good practical reasons for different parts of the UK to operate under different rules.
It is worth noting that Scotland has previously called for a second vote on independence from the United Kingdom so that it may be able to remain part of the EU after the brexit.
“This could be the moment for opposition and soft Brexit/remain Tories to force a different, less damaging approach - keep the UK in the single market and customs union. But it needs Labour to get its act together,” Sturgeon tweeted at Jeremy Corbyn, the leader of the opposition in the British parliament and the Labour Party.
