UK MPs will vote on Thursday on delaying Brexit after they decisively rejected a no-deal Brexit.
Prime Minister Theresa May says she favours requesting a short extension to the process if her Brexit deal can be agreed by the House of Commons in the coming days.
But she warns a long delay to Article 50 will be necessary if no deal's reached over the next week.
Britain's due to leave the EU on March 29.
Chancellor Philip Hammond says May's deal remains the best on the table:

US, Ukraine discuss post-war reconstruction as Russia pummels grid
Israeli fire kills three people in Gaza as truce deal staggers
Cuban forces kill 4 exiles who attacked from Florida speedboat
Hong Kong court overturns China critic Lai's fraud conviction in rare legal victory
Hillary Clinton to testify in congressional Epstein probe
