VALLETTA, Feb 3 (APP - UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 03rd Feb, 2017 ) - European Union leaders will try to rally together to revive the beleaguered bloc at a special summit in Malta on Friday in the face of "threats" from migration, Brexit and Donald Trump.
It is the latest in a series of crisis meetings since Britain voted to leave the EU last June, but fears about the new US president have strengthened the sense that the bloc is now at a decisive moment in its history.
The first part of the meeting, which all 28 leaders will attend, will focus on the migration crisis amid warnings of a new surge in people making the dangerous sea crossing from Libya. "Our main goal for the Malta summit is to stem the flow of irregular migration from Libya to Europe.This is the only way to stop people dying in the deserts and at sea," EU President Donald Tusk said in Valletta on Thursday.
