ROME: Prime Minister Theresa May said on Wednesday she had an open mind about Britain's future ties with the European Union, adding that it may not copy any of the existing relationships between non-EU countries and the bloc.
"I'm looking at this with an open mind," May said. "I think we should be developing the model that suits the United Kingdom and the European Union. Not adopting, necessarily, a model that is on the shelf already," she added at a news conference after meeting Italian Prime Minister Matteo Renzi in Rome.
May also said she hoped to be able to address the issue of the rights of EU nationals living in Britain and British citizens living in the EU early on in Brexit talks.
