BRUSSELS (Reuters) - The European Union's negotiator Michel Barnier said on Wednesday that he was working for a Brexit deal and a future cooperation model with Britain that would respect the UK's sovereignty.

Barnier said after meeting the head of the European Economic and Social Committee, which represents trade unions and employers: "We are working for an orderly Brexit and a new partnership that respects the UK's sovereignty, as well as the founding principles of the EU, such as the integrity of the single market."
