Mr Varadkar says stopping an extension of Brexit would do harm to Ireland and to other EU countries.
Theresa May is trying to forge a deal with Jeremy Corbyn and has asked for an extension to 30 June
He said:"Because nobody wants a no deal, I think the likelihood is an extension. But what we want to avoid is an extension that just allows for more indecision and more uncertainty. In a no-deal scenario, Mr Varadkar said the"logical" way to ensure a free-flowing border between the Republic and Northern Ireland would be for regulatory checks to take place at sea ports in Belfast and Larne.Asked how likely it is one country could veto an extension, he said:"To wield the veto is something that is rarely done.
