TAORMINA, Italy (Reuters) - European Council President Donald Tusk said on Friday he was "positively surprised" by Donald Trump's support for the EU as it manages Britain's departure, adding the U.S. president had agreed Brexit was just "an incident and not a threat".
After meeting Trump on Thursday in Brussels, Tusk told a news conference: "It was clear for both of us that the EU at 27 is more united after Brexit than before Brexit."
