AWS DX to AWS DX via 3rd party Layer 2 VPLS

Question

Is it possible to BGP peer DX VIF's across regions, without a dedicated (customer) BGP router?  
  
We only have infrastructure in the Cloud, we could spin up a network appliance in the VPC, but it seems like we need something directly on the other end of DX/VPLS for this.  
  
This is pretty much the same question as https://forums.aws.amazon.com/click.jspa?searchID=12352637&messageID=814856 raised 2 years ago, just hoping ideas had changed since then.  
  
Any direction would be greatly appreciated.  
  
Thanks

Answer

So yes, you can peer two individual VIF's directly, but that will only give a single point-to-point connection.  
  
I've progressed with this now, so happy to close.  
  
We are trialling vendors who supply Cloud to Cloud Layer 3 instead.
