European Union leaders have urged U.S. president-elect Donald Trump to uphold his country’s “strategic partnership” with the bloc.
In a joint letter published Wednesday, European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker and European Council President Donald Tusk invited Trump to visit Europe for an EU-U.S. summit “at your earliest convenience.”
The EU chiefs said that only by “strengthening transatlantic cooperation” could the two parties work on shared goals, including defeating the Islamic State militant group (ISIS), protecting Ukraine’s territorial sovereignty, and tackling climate change and global migration.
