The BBC also has this bit, which I think is important:

The taoiseach thanked Mr Tusk for the solidarity demonstrated by all EU partners and called the EU "a family which sticks together".

He said he was optimistic that a deal could be achieved by Monday.

However, he said any UK offer must indicate how a hard border can be avoided and avoid the risk of regulatory divergence.


"Avoid the risk of regulatory divergence": that has implications which might not be immediately obvious, such as who decides whether a divergence has occurred, or whether only one side - i.e. the EU - is able to set the regulations.
