Exclusive-EU Has Adapted to US Unpredictability, Foreign Policy Chief Says

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.
