BRUSSELS (AP) — German Chancellor Angela Merkel says she believes the British decision to leave the European Union can’t be undone.

Merkel said of last Thursday’s referendum decision after meeting with her fellow EU leaders: “I see no way to reverse it.”

She said Tuesday that this is not a time for “wishful thinking.”

Some 52 percent of British voters decided last week to leave the 28-nation bloc.
