Brexit Vote Is Irreversible Says Merkel

Britain’s decision to leave the EU is irreversible, German Chancellor Angela Merkel says following summit talks in Brussels with British Prime Minister David Cameron and the bloc’s other leaders.

“I see no way to reverse that,” Merkel says of the referendum outcome, while adding that the issue was not discussed with Cameron.
“This is not the hour for wishful thinking the referendum stands as a reality, she said.
“The atmosphere was serious, amicable and borne by the awareness that this is more of a sad event, but that it is a reality,” Merkel said of the leaders’ talks, noting that consequences now need to be drawn
