VALLETTA, Feb. 3 (Xinhua) -- European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said Friday that he doesn't feel threatened by U.S. President Donald Trump.
"I don't feel threatened but there is room for explanation," Juncker said against a sign of unease about the new U.S. administration ahead of the European Union informal summit in Valletta, Malta.
"I get the impression the new administration does not know the details of the European Union. But in Europe details matter," Juncker said.
British Prime Minister Theresa May is set to brief leaders on her recent talks in the United States with Trump.
The Malta summit is an occasion for the EU leaders to discuss the bloc's future following the June 23 Brexit referendum and the first gathering of the EU leaders after Trump became U.S. president.
In the morning session of the summit, the 28 leaders, including May, will address the migration crisis amid warnings of more people trying to reach Europe through the dangerous Central Mediterranean route from Libya.
The afternoon session will be an occasion for the leaders without May to prepare for the upcoming 60th anniversary of the Rome Treaties, which falls on March 25.
