BRUSSELS (Reuters) - Britain's withdrawal from the European Union has to be notified as soon as possible after a referendum voted in favor of Britain leaving the bloc last week, EU Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said after a meeting of EU leaders. "We want article 50 to be triggered. It has to be sped up, we don't have months to meditate," Juncker told a news conference in Brussels.
