EU Tightens On Trump

European Union leaders said they agreed to stick together in dealing with Donald Trump. At their first summit since he took office, however, they were at odds on how far to confront or engage with the new U.S. president.

From questioning the value of NATO and free trade to banning Muslim refugees, Trump and his policies, came up repeatedly in discussions in Malta on external "challenges" facing the Union.

British Prime Minister Theresa May briefed peers on her visit to Washington last week. She is about to lead her own country out of the EU. She assured them Trump was committed to cooperating in their defense -- just as Britain would also be after Brexit.
