Donald Tusk Passed The Golden Bell to the New Head of the European Council

Donald Tusk's five years as Head of the European Council are ending as he's replaced by the former Belgian Prime Minister, Charles Michel, Euronews reports.

The outgoing leader exchanged a handshake and a hug with the new Council President on Friday before the two gave speeches, exchanging a golden bell used to start meetings.

"It is a great responsibility and a great honour," Michel said. He joked that he hoped he received as much applause as Tusk had at the end of his own leadership.
