EU, Trump at odds

BRUSSELS: The EU and US President Donald Trump seem to have differing positions on dealing with Russia, climate change and global trade, European Council President Donald Tusk said after talks with Trump yesterday.

Tusk said they agreed on countering militant violence and on Ukraine: “We discussed foreign policy, security, climate and trade relations,” Tusk said in Brussels after he and EU chief executive Jean-Claude Juncker met Trump.

“We agreed foremost on counterterrorism. Some issues remain open like climate, trade and… Russia, but on the Ukraine conflict it seems we’re on the same lines.” Reuters
