- Business daily Dagens Næringsliv reported that the UK's international trade secretary, Liam Fox, lobbied his Norwegian counterpart, Minister of Trade and Industry Monica Mæland, for Norway to join the United Kingdom in establishing a task force to prepare a new trade agreement for when the Brits formally leave the EU.
- But when Fox's request was relayed to the Norwegian Foreign Ministry, it was rejected. According to Dagens Næringsliv, the ministry's director general for European affairs, Niels Engelschiøn, thought that joining the UK in a special task force would jeopardize Norway's European Economic Area (EEA) agreement.

This beagle is funny too.
