Foreign Secretary Jeremy Hunt refused to say whether the current withdrawal agreement was better than the UK remaining in the EU.
"The truth is, there are compromises in this deal," he told Andrew Marr.
Mr Hunt said the UK was "not significantly worse or better off" but argued that the current agreement would allow the UK to regain sovereignty.
"This isn't a perfect deal, but it does have a lot of what everyone wants."
He said it could be seen as "a staging post" to a situation giving us 100% of what we want.
