Britain’s Prime Minister Theresa May on Friday dismissed as “unworkable” the EU’s plans on the border between the Republic of Ireland and Northern Ireland and urged the bloc to “evolve” their position and back her government’s proposals.

Northern Ireland is part of the UK, while the Republic is a EU member state.
