EU President Jean-Claude Juncker said a post-Brexit security pact should be discussed separately from other issues, such as trade. Addressing the Munich Security Conference, Juncker said a security alliance between the UK and the European Commission was needed, but that question should not be mixed up with others relating to Brexit. He added that he understood why some wanted security policy and trade policy considerations to be put "in one hat", but stressed "we don't want to".
