During a phone conversation with European Council President Donald Tusk newly-appointed UK Prime Minister Theresa May announced that a decision has been made to give up the country's 2017 presidency of the European Council (EC) in light of the Brexit vote, Sputnik News reports, referring to Irish broadcaster RTE.

"Skipping the United Kingdom's turn for the presidency would be "the right thing to do given we will be very busy with negotiations to leave the EU," May told Tusk, as cited by the broadcaster.
