Diplomats from EU's founding 6 meet in Berlin to talk Brexit

Steinmeier's office had said earlier that the meeting is one of many conversations now taking place, and shouldn't be seen as "an exclusive format."

Besides the German foreign minister, France's Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault and counterparts from The Netherlands, Bert Koenders, Italy's Paolo Gentiloni, Dider Reynders from Belgium and Jean Asselborn from Luxembourg were taking part in the talks.
