BRUSSELS, March ⁠17 (Reuters) - The European Union has ⁠started taking the unpredictability of ‌the United States into account one year after President Donald Trump returned to ​the White House, EU ⁠foreign policy chief ⁠Kaja Kallas said on Tuesday.

"Of course, ⁠we ‌are allies with America, but we don't really ⁠understand their moves recently," Kallas told ​Reuters ‌in an interview.

"I think it ⁠is pretty ​clear after this one year that the word that we ⁠have to take into account ​is unpredictability. So we are now more calm because we are ⁠expecting the unpredictable things to happen all the time, and take it as it is, put ​some ice in ⁠our hats and be calm and ​stay focused," she ‌added.
