TEHRAN, Mar 04 - Officials from the European Union and Britain are set to resume discussions on how to break the Brexit deadlock, less than four weeks before the country is scheduled to leave the bloc.

Brexit talks between EU and UK set to resumeTEHRAN, Young Journalists Club (YJC) - EU officials said Michel Barnier, the EU's chief Brexit negotiator, will meet with Britain's Brexit Secretary Stephen Barclay and Attorney General Geoffrey Cox.

Britain is due to leave the EU on March 29, but the British Parliament has so far rejected a deal between the EU and the government of British Prime Minister Theresa May, raising the prospect of a chaotic, economically damaging departure from the bloc.

The main point of discussion centers on a provision to ensure no border posts go up after Brexit between EU member Ireland and Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom.
