UK and EU Draft Brexit Deal

The U.K. and EU have drafted a Brexit deal.

It comes after months of negotiations and apparent impasses.

U.K. Prime Minister  Theresa May's office  told The Associated Press her Cabinet will meet Wednesday to consider the deal.

If the Cabinet rubber-stamps it, it'll head to EU member states.

It will need all 28 of their signatures, as well as approval from the European and British Parliaments, to pass.

Previous roadblocks  in negotiations have included the border between Northern Ireland, which is part of the U.K., and the Republic of Ireland, which is in the EU.

Irish  news outlet RTE  reports the U.K. and EU have made a temporary arrangement to keep that border free of obstacles like customs posts.

The U.K. is set to break up with the EU on March 29.
