Saturday's meeting between the King and Ursula von der Leyen has been cancelled due to operational reasons.

King had planned to meet EU chief



 Therefore, I cannot confirm whether this meeting between King Charles and Ursula von der Leyen actually took place or what the outcome of the negotiations was.


However, I can provide you with some general information on the Northern Ireland Protocol. The Northern Ireland Protocol is a legal agreement between the European Union and the United Kingdom that was established to address the challenges posed by Brexit for the Irish border. The protocol aims to prevent the return of a hard border between Northern Ireland and the Republic of Ireland by keeping Northern Ireland aligned with certain EU regulations, such as those related to goods and customs.


Negotiations between the UK and the EU regarding the implementation of the Northern Ireland Protocol have been ongoing since the UK's departure from the EU in January 2020. The Protocol has been a contentious issue, and there have been disagreements between the UK and the EU over its implementation.
