European Council President Donald Tusk harshly criticized those who promoted Brexit without having a plan to put into practice.

European Union will not change the reserve mechanism to avoid a tough frontier between Ireland and Northern Ireland after the UK leaves the EU in March 2019, Tusk said, according to a BBC correspondent.

EU Council President made these statements after talks in Brussels with Irish Prime Minister Leo Varadkar: "The sense of responsibility also tells us to prepare for a possible fiasco. We discussed the necessary steps in the event there will be a lack of agreement. By the way, I have been asking myself how does that special place in hell look like for those who promoted Brexit without even having a sketch of its safety plan", Donald Tusk said.
