This is the first official confirmation of a specific date to be set as a goal by EU Brexit negotiators.
Transition talks are expected to begin in January 2018, and with any luck lead to agreement on a UK-EU free-trade deal by January 2021.
But given the glacial pace at which talks/discussions/negotiations have been moving since June 2016, the idea of reaching a workable deal in 3 years from next month sounds very much like wishful thinking.
Anyone disagree?
