Sinkov.

The Withdrawal agreement was in three parts.

1/. The welfare of EU nationals living in the UK and UK nationals living in the vEU. This was agreed.And won't change.

2/. Our "Divorce Bill". This was agreed to be £39 billion. I don't think this will change.

3/. The Irish border. And this is what is causing all the problems.

We agreed with the EU to the backstop. But Parliament didn't.

Basically, it was meant as a "backstop" in case a long lasting solution could not be found within the 2 years of the trade deal negotiation. If a solution could be found then the backstop would never be implemented.
So...if Boris reckons that he has found the long lasting solution then of course they will discuss it - and that's what they are doing.

I'm sure you didn't think that we had agreed that the backstop was set in stone??
