(CNN) The European Union has reiterated its position that the Brexit deal agreed with UK Prime Minister Theresa May will not be renegotiated. Several British lawmakers continue to argue that the EU will want to avoid a so-called "no deal" outcome, and could be forced into changes if the UK's Parliament refuses to back the deal on the country's scheduled departure from the bloc in March. But speaking in Brussels on Thursday, the European Commission's deputy chief spokesperson Mina Andreeva rejected that idea. "For now, no further meetings are foreseen between the Commission's negotiators and the UK negotiators as negotiations have indeed been concluded," she said. "We are not renegotiating what is on the table."
