Trump says he would have taken a 'tougher' attitude toward Brexit

US President Donald Trump said in a TV interview aired on Sunday that he would have taken a "tougher" approach to negotiations on Britain's exit (Brexit) from the European Union (EU) than the one currently adopted by British Prime Minister Theresa May.


In an interview with journalist Piers Morgan, who hosts British ITV channel's program Good Morning Britain, Trump said: "Would it be the way I negotiate it? No, I wouldn't negotiate it the way it's (being) negotiated ... I would have had a different attitude."

Acknowledging he had a lot of respect for May, the president said he "would have taken a tougher stand in getting out."
