BRUSSELS, Sept. 28 (Xinhua) -- The 4th round of Brexit talks failed again to bring long-expected concrete results from both sides of the English Channel though Britain's Brexit Secretary David Davis told reporters Thursday in Brussels that "considerable progress has been made in issues that matters".

"Negotiation teams have drafted principles on common travel area between Britain and Ireland and have conducted constructive talks on details of Britain's financial responsibility after Brexit," said Davis at a press conference following the fourth round of the talks.

But for his part, EU chief negotiator Michel Barnier said, "We failed to agree on the continuous rule of EU court after Brexit and we are not there yet for concrete results and more works to be done in next weeks and months."
