BRUSSELS (Reuters) - It is unlikely that there will be a breakthrough in negotiations on Britain's exit from the European Union this month, Belgian Foreign Minister Didier Reynders said on Monday.

"Till now we are waiting for new news from London... We have time, but not so much. For this month, it's very difficult to make real progress, but before Christmas I'm hoping that it will be possible," Reynders told reporters before a meeting of national ministers on Brexit in Brussels.
