British Prime Minister Theresa
May said Friday that the UK wants to be EU's "strongest friend
and partner" after it leaves the bloc in a hotly awaited speech
on Brexit in Florence. She added that the rights of EU citizens
in the UK will be fully guaranteed after Brexit. "I'm clear the
guarantee giving on your rights is real," she said in an address
aiming a breaking the deadlock in the Brexit negotiations.
Britain may be leaving the EU, "but we are not leaving Europe",
she said.
