48 wanted to stay. As a result, british Prime Minister David Cameron announced he would be resigning. I will do everything i can as Prime Minister to steady the ship over the coming weeks and months. But i do not think it will be right for me to be the captain that steers our country to its next destination. The fallout of the markets was tafast and furious. Global markets tanked. British plummeted, close to the lowest level this 30 years. Here in the United States, the dow went into free fall when the markets opened shedding 520 points. Take a look at the numbers right now. They certainly are not much better at all. President obama who had urged the british voters to stay in the eu put out this statement and im quoting him now. The people of the United Kingdom have spoken and we respect their decision. The special relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom is enduring. So too is our relationship with the European Union. The United Kingdom and the European Union will remain indispensable partners of the United States. Thats the president s statement. By the way, hes expected to speak later this hour in palo alto, california, well bring you his remarks live once that happens. Stand by for that. The Presumptive Republican president ial nominee, donald trump, hes in scotland today saying the brexit as its being called is a very similar situation to whats going on here in the United States. I really do see a parallel between whats happening in the United States and whats happening here. People want to take their country back. They want to have independence in a sense. And you see it with europe all over europe. Youre going to have more than just, in my opinion, more than what happened last night. Youre going to have, i think, many other cases where they want to take their borders back. The Presumptive Democratic president ial nominee, Hillary Clinton, issued her own statement saying we respect the choice of the people of the United Kingdom. Have made th. This time of uncertainty only underscore it is need for calm and to support our friends and allies, stand up to our adversaries and defend our interests. A statement from Hillary Clinton. The uks decision to leave the European Union, sending shock waves through Financial Markets around the world. Here in the United States, the dow plummeted more than 500 points right after the opening bell. Three to go. We see the losses accelerate for all the major. They expected britain to vote to stay in the eu and woke up finding out the vote went in the other way. They try to unwind. That was to buy into the market and instead, its turned into quite a black friday where we see this selloff happen. Are we expecting longterm effects on the u. S. Market, alison . Depends who you ask. Some say this is a oneoff and others say this kind of gloom could weigh on the market for some time, especially if you see the brexit affect the Global Economy. Case in point, the imf said the uk could now dip into a recession. If that happens, then the fear becomes contagion and the question becomes, could europe be next . And then the u. S. Co could the United States be next after this . The worry about that interconnectivity and the weight on the uk and making this decision, that could still weigh over the market for some time, wolf. Certainly could. Alison kosik. Thank you. As the decision reverberates around the world, World Leaders react swiftly. Scotland faces the prospect of being taken out of the eu against our will. I regard that as democratically unacceptable. This painful choice which i deeply regret. We cannot jump to quick conclusions because this would have a further rift within the European Union. We need to be calm and analyze the situation. Cnn has reporters all over europe, across the globe covering this story from all angles. Cnns and Erin Mclaughlin and Matthew Chance standing by live in moscow. Lets go to london. It changed the course of the countrys history. You spoke to the Uk Independence Party leader, nigel farog. What did you ask and what did he say . Reporter it was extraordinary, wolf. I asked him whether he quite believed it and he said no. The level that both sides of this campaign, they were big on slogans but really very sparse on details. That is now starting to hit home here because even this morning, he had a lot of very big bold answers. But he didnt really have any of the fine details of how this would happen. He said the relationship with the u. S. Was going to continue to be closer than ever despite Barack Obamas warnings to be able to continue to play a key role in terror and cooperation, the global war on terror and really nothing that concrete. The reality is that one voter said to me, the entire nation feels as realization dawns almost its waking up to a hangover. Wolf . Many are wondering how big of an impact this will have on the European Union. Outside of the eu. Headquarters there in brussels. How are eu officials reacting . Reporter eu leaders are trying to reassure people. We hear expressions of unity, sorrow, respect for the democratic process but also hear expressions of resilience. President of the european council, donald tusz, saying what doesnt kill you makes you stronger. And at the same time, there is growing concern here in brussels about euro skepticism across the continent. Weve heard for calls for similar referendums in countries such as france as well as the netherlands and that is going to impact any sort of an exit negotiations that uk might undertake with the eu. I spoke to a senior diplomat who said there will be no niceties in the negotiations. There is no eu leader that wants to see a brexit look like an attractive option to other eu member states. Wolf . Interesting. The russian president putin may be one of the few leaders around the world supporting this decision. Whats the reaction over there in moscow . Yeah. Thats right. I mean, putin, of course, is under sanctions from the European Union, so its seen as being in his interests for the eu to be divided in some way. Tweeting earlier, putin benefits from a weaker europe. This vote makes europe weaker. Therefore, putin wins. Putin feels less pressure today. That was the word from the British Foreign secretary. And putin absolutely categorically denies this. He said, i dont care whether or not britain is in or out. He said these allegations against him that hes going to benefit are merely an attempt to smear him and an attempt to manipulate Public Opinion inside britain. But even his supporters here in russia are backing up those critics. The mayor of moscow saying that without britain in the European Union, there will be less of a strident voice now to back up sanctions against us. Against russia. So the hope in russia is without britain or europe, it will be much weaker sanctions than the ukraine. Interesting. Erin mcloughlin in brussels. Thank you to all of you. The magnitude of this decision can not be stressed enough. The reverberations not only felt today but in the weeks, months, and indeed, years to come. Tony blair served as the british Prime Minister for ten years and voted to remain in the European Union. The Prime Minister joining us from london. Prime minister blair, thank you very much for joining us. I know youre disappointed. Markets all over the world right now are down. World leaders spoke out shortly after the vote. Angela merkel calling it a cut to europe. Whats your biggest concern right now . My biggest concern about the voters is its a vast moment with consequences for britain, the Global Economy and the beginning of a process in which britain will have to try and negotiate its way out of europe, negotiate new arrangements with europe. This is going to be very difficult and i think theres an urgent need to stabilize the country to bring it together and i think frankly, were going to have to reflect all of us that come from the center right of left on the consequences of this type of campaign for where politics goes in the western world right now. Since i think these type of insurgent movements are common everywhere within europe, within the west, but this is a huge experiment with my countrys future. It certainly is. And youre obviously very worried. We have more on the point you made in a moment. But as you know, analysts were clearly expecting a close vote. Some predicting late yesterday that the, quote, remain vote would win. Were you surprised that the lead vote won by over a million votes . Yes, i was. And i think they focused their camp very much on immigration. That that really became the test and i think there was a lot of discussion about britain taking back control of its own destiny, although when i was Prime Minister for ten years, i literally cannot think of a big decision i was unable to take because of europe and i think part of the Labor Party Vote and was voting obviously on issues like immigration but also voted against the government of the day and we didnt, frankly, as the labour party mobilize our vote to understand this was not a protest vote for yesterday, thursday, june the 23rd, the people were the government. And the people took a decision of government. So you were concerned that the driving force that convinced millions of british citizens to choose to leave the eu was the fear that immigrants coming in to, lets say, other members, countries of the European Union would be easily able to come in to britain and come there. That was the biggest concern in britain . The biggest concern was definitely immigration and the whole other thing got mixed up in this. As you know from the u. S. , we can see it anywhere in europe today, this issue to do with immigration has the power to move electorates in a very sharp and clear direction. And there was a worry that, as a result of part of the european market, this Free Movement of people within that market, we have a lot of people migrate from different parts of europe to come and work here in the uk, but the majority of our immigration is actually not from europe. Its from outside of europe and thats not changed by this decision. And those people that come in from Eastern Europe or elsewhere in europe into my country, frankly, they pay far more in taxes than they take in benefits and tend to work hard, pretty decent members of our community. This is a vote in which i think, as the days and weeks and months pass, people will reflect very deeply on how many of our real problems have been solved by this decision. But theyve taken the decision and obviously, its a big jolt to those of us who really thought that it was near impossible for britain to take a decision like this and take ourselves out of the largest Political Union and biggest commercial market in the world. Immigration has been a big issue here in the United States. Donald trump said he saw parallels between the vote in the uk and the kind of support hes seeing here in the United States. Do you agree with him . Actually, on this point, i do agree. I think there are parallels. But, you know, the question is do those parallels take you in a good direction or bad direction . And, you know, the most important thing to understand in the end is that over these days, weeks, and months ahead, people will be able to see the consequences of this vote because what were going to have to do in britain is were going to have to Single Market is where we sell half of our goods and services. So this is a massive market for us. Were going to have to try and negotiate our way back into that market and this process, i think, will be a lot more difficult than people understand. This is not like a decision whether to join europe. Its a decision whether to come out of europe after more than four decades of integration with europe. So i think yes, there are parallels with these insurgent movements, left and right and your way, our way, but the question will be over time, are these experiments going to result in a good outcome or not . Im curious, what do you think of donald trump . Look, who you elect as president is up to you. Let me just put it like that. But what i do think is that there is a strange coming together of populism from the left and the right that you would think that populism of left and right doesnt have much in common but curiously, they have a lot in common. They basically take this force of globalization, which is a force that is driven by people, its not created by government. Its the product of technology, its the product of migration and the way the worlds moving closer together, the ability to travel, and they stand against this force of globalization. In different ways, but still thinking that isolating ourselves or shutting our borders is the way to deal with it. Its not. The way to give jobs to people who are marginalized in our society is better education, build the right infrastructure, develop the jobs of the future, make sure that we use technology in order to improve and change our Public Services and government. There are solutions for the future that weve got to put forward before people and the danger is that so much anger at the moment that the anger displaces what are frankly the more rational answers. You know the president , president obama, he was in the uk in april and he seemed, he clearly wanted the uk to stay in the eu and he seemed to deliver a direct threat to the people of britain. Listen to this. I think its fair to say that maybe some point down the line, there might be a uk u. S. Trade agreement, but its not going to happen anytime soon because our focus is in negotiating with big block of the European Union to get a trade agreement done. And uks going to be in the back of the queue. Was that appropriate for him . Because the criticism was, he was inappropriately intervening in domestic uk issues. I dont think he intervened inappropriately. And, you know, at some point, we could work out the difference between a threat and a warning. One of the things that people like myself are accused of here during the course of this campaign, when we were saying we should stay in europe, we were accused of scare mon gegering w we said they would be huge economic consequences. You see what happened in the pound today in the stock market and the discussion about uks Credit Rating and then we said, if we vote to leave, there are going to be serious consequences because scotland will say, if we vote to stay in europe, and the rest of britain votes to come out of europe, well want a fresh referendum on independence. Again, people said, youre just scare mongering. We were warning, and today, the leader of the Scottish National party and the leader of the Scottish Parliament said that. They want a fresh referendum. When people like president obama are saying, im trying to warn you of the consequences, theyre not intervening inappropriately. Theyre simply saying, look, were trying to say to you, this is what actually happens when you go down this path and part of the trouble with the world weve got today is that, you know, the problems are complicated. And there is a real problem everywhere that people are feeling their incomes are flat lining. They can see their communities changing around them. They feel, in a sense, lost control over their own destiny and that feewas a very strong feeling in the uk but getting out of europe is not the answer. In a world that is coming together much more, youre better able to achieve your aims in alliance with others rather than thinking that if you pull up the drawbridge, youre going to make your problems better. Youre not. So this is, you know, an argument that i think will go on both sides of the atlantic and what has happened in britain is one dimension of what is truly a kind of global debate and i do think the people like myself on the center left of politics and those on the center right, weve got to work out how weve lost traction so badly and how we regain it. Quickly, were out of time. Who do you want to succeed, Prime Minister David Cameron, who said he will resign . Thats for the conservative party to desicide. The most important thing is when David Cameron, he is still Prime Minister, he does everything he can to stabilize it and im sure he will try to do that. Tony blair, the former british Prime Minister, thank you for joining us. Thank you. And coming up, donald trump gets a global stage during his trip to scotland today.

As we watch history unfold in the United Kingdom right now voted to leave the European Union, donald trump whether by careful cooperation or by coincidence at the center of it all in scotland. Trump landed there early this morning to visit his new golf resort at the property of the republican presumptive president ial nominee had the worlds attention and this is how he used it. To think that wed be here owning turnberry one day is incredible. We have taken the building and made it something special. Brand new sprinkler system. The highest level. A lot think this will be the greatest par 3 anywhere in the world. Trump spoke about the golf course in detail for 13 minutes, eventually answering questions after his son also spoke. Our political reporter sara murray was at the event and now joining us live from the event in scotland. Some are baffled by Donald Trumps approach right now. Was it a surprise to those of you on the ground . Reporter wolf, i feel like this is a case of donald trump being in the right place at the right time. It was very interesting to see him come out this morning though. He sort of briefly flicked at the brexit vote and talked about how it was a historic day and momentous occasion and then you saw there launched into a very long explanation of the upgrades hes made at his trump property here and facing a little bit of criticism for the fact hes essentially running a business while hes running a campaign for the white house and i asked him about that today. Take a listen. Mr. Trump, 7 in 10 voters want to see you cut ties with your business while running for the president of the u. S. While youre running though . I will do though. I dont think it matters while im running. Nobody had this big of a business and runs for president rin wynn wins. I would probably put everything in trust. Trump property we visited during your president ial campaign, why do you continue to have events there . Number one, i have the best properties. Okay . And you can say that. I will say a lot of press has said, whether you like him or not, theres no Properties Like that. You dont get to see that otherwise, but i have the best properties and why should i use somebody elses properties . Reporter now, wolf, at times, traveling with donald trump has felt like a promotional tour as it has being on the campaign trail but spoke more about the brexit today. He drew parallels between the angst and anxiety over the economy and immigration here in the uk and its similar to voters back in the u. S. But once again, brought it around to his business interests saying if the pound takes a hit as a result of the brexit, thats only good news for his resorts and might inspire more visitors to come to a close like turnberry. Thank you very much. Sara murray in scotland for us. Lets talk more about Donald Trumps response. Other ways the brexit results could impact the u. S. Election. Joining us now are cnn political analyst, the host of the David Gregory show podcast, David Gregory and susan page. Thank you very much for joining us. I was watching new day this morning and having the News Conference live. You seem almost dumbfounded by his Opening Statement f yif you will. Weve all covered president s or anyone trying to be a world leader on the world stage and in a moment like that, you expected him to at least address the brexit vote off the top and with a note of caution but doesnt even talk about it until hes asked about it and frankly, i mean, its impossible not to ridicule. Hes talking about adding suites to the lighthouse behind him while pursuing the white house. It was just another aspect of the surreal quality of the candidacy. A real missed opportunity and again, i think for voters in america looking. They see a presumptive nominee trying to prove some and quite shac shaky at the very best. He said there are parallels to whats happening over there to whats happening here in the United States. Its clear theres some political parallels. The u. S. Electorate is more diverse but the concerns about immigration and the feeling the people are left behind in this economy, the decline of manufacturing, those are all elements that we saw in the brexit vote that we also see in the president ial election here. And also, some of the divides in the e lk tralectoratelectorate. Older people voting to go. Younger people voting to stay. People without an education voting to go. Those with better education to stay. Those are some of the divides we see here. Big institutions, distrust for elites. I thought that was an aspect of what trump said in the q and a that was effective and a reminder of trump seizing on the populist message that has been very effective for him politically in his primary run and he was able to tie that in to whats happening there. You heard tony blair saying immigration was a huge factor in the uk just as it is here in this current election cycle. Also, a willingness to take a risk. The elites in Great Britain said its very risky to do this. Big economic consequences. Here too, i think the opinion of elites is mattering less than it often does when you talk about the risk of voting for donald trump. We stand by to hear from the president of the United States and a statement on this. Not very happy. Certainly did not want britain to leave the European Union but trump interestingly enough said the president has himself to blame for this decision. Listen to this. I was actually very surprised that president obama would come over here and would have been so bold to tell the people over here what to do. And i think that a lot of people dont like him. And a lot of people voted. I think if he had not said it, i think your result might have been different. But when he said it, people were not happy about it. And i thought it was totally inappropriate. Interesting. To test that proposition because there is an aspect to kind of the globalized elite political structure saying, dont do this. Because its bad. Economically and for the concept of europe and people say, no. We dont want that. What i thought trump was effective or dangerous depending on your point of view was the brexit vote today not somebody with a polished view of the world but as a business guy. And his impressions of what will happen. I think theres a lot of people here say, yeah, some of that makes sense and i think some of the voters who hear politicians like a tony blair or president obama or others say dont do this, we have to stick to the globalized order, no, theres got to be Something Better because we dont trust these big institutions anymore. Heres another clip, susan, from what the president said in april when he was in the uk speaking on this very sensitive referendum. Im not coming here to fix any votes. Im not casting a vote myself. Im offering my opinion. And in democracies, everybody should want more information, not less. And you shouldnt be afraid to hear an argument being made. Its not a threat. That should enhance the debate. A lot of people in britain, as you know, they saw it as a threat when they said, you know what . When you leave the eu, well negotiate new trade deals with the eu. Youre a much smaller entity than the eu. Youll be at the end of the queue. He said that was bitterly seen by a lot of british citizens that the president was interfering with their domestic affairs. And of course, president obama is not just a commentator on cnn as powerful as those people are, hes president of the United States. When he makes that kind of commentary, i think it carries a little bit of a threat of a sting and now you see a situation, of course, we understand why president obama spoke up. Theres some economic consequences were going to see in the United States as a result of this decision. Theres going to be some shifts in the political dynamic and Strategic Partnerships that we have. I mean, i think it strengthens germanys hand as a partner to the u. S. But Great Britain has. In terms of the u. S. Election, Hillary Clinton, donald trump, is this seen as a good move, a good step for donald trump right now . Is this a win for him, the decision in the uk . I think it cuts two ways. Doubles down on his political philosophy depending on your perspective is refreshing or dangerous. And i think Hillary Clinton has to see this populism sweeping across the globe and find a way to deal with it. The problem for donald trump is we look at our screen here. The dow off almost 500 points. The economic shocks from this decision which will play out in the days and weeks and months ahead could be a real warning sign to American Voters about this kind of politics and that may hurt trump especially on the first day in scotland. He went so far out there saying, no, this is a good thing. Lovely golf course out there. Apparently. May be sold out after his big coverage. Hes got some good publicity for that. David gregory, susan paige. Thank you. We stand by to hear live from president obama getting ready to speak about the uks historic vote to split from the European Union. We have live coverage of that. Stand by. Hes out at Stanford University in california right now. Who hugs a friend. Who is done with treatments that dont give you clearer skin.

President obama has been briefed on the stunning vote by britain to leave the European Union. We expect to hear from the president literally any moment and speak at Stanford University part of a Panel Discussion with the facebook ceo mark zuker berg. Well have live coverage momentarily and hear the president s words on this historic decision by the uk. We also heard from the Vice President , joe biden, just a little while ago during a speech at the Dublin Castle in ireland and talked about the fears that may have led to the brexit vote and the politicians who play to those fears. We see it in europe, we see it in other parts of the world. An we see it in my home country, where some politicians find it convenient to scapegoat immigrants instead of welcoming them. To play to our fears, to play to our fears rather than, as Abraham Lincoln said, appeal to our better angels. To divide us based on religion or ethnicity rather than unite us on our common humanity, build walls instead of bridges, it has been unamerican what we have been seeing. Its not im here to tell you its not who we have become. It is not who we are. The Vice President clearly referring to donald trump, the presumptive president ial nominee. The stunning vote to leave the European Union reflects deep divisions in the uk over issues like immigration and globalization. Our Senior International correspondent frederik pleitgen. One of the highest leave votes in the uk. Fred, what are you hearing from the people there about why they wanted to pull out of the eu . Reporter hi, wolf. Youre absolutely right. Its a High Percentage of people who want to leave the European Union. Its about 70 of the people who did vote in this referendum for the leave campaign. And also, they had a really high voter turnout here as well. More than 70 of people actually turned out and i did ask some of the folks here who are coming by here why exactly they voted that way. A lot of them were talking about issues with immigration. They felt that was something that was not being handled well. Both by the current government in london but also by the European Union as well and the other big issue was the economy. A lot said they felt left behind in the past couple of years. As, of course, this country has advanced economically but many say the European Union was at least in part at fault for themselves having a lot of trouble finding jobs and finding goodpaying jobs. The other thing that we also asked the folks as well here is what do they think of the consequences of all of this are going to be . Weve seen the pound, for instance, drop a lot. Weve seen the stock markets drop a lot. Most of the folks we speak to here say believe thats something temporary and say its going to rebound and a lot believe in the long term, the economy here in this country could be better off than it was better. You certainly do see a lot of people who are quite disgruntled at their Current Situation and who certainly believe that theyd be better off without the European Union, wolf. Fred, thank you very much. Fred pleitgen reporting. As britain bids farewell, dow plunging nearly 500 points. We talk to an economic analyst about how bad it could get. Live pictures coming in from Stanford University. Were expecting president obama to speak specifically on the brexit vote. When he takes to the stage at this event, thats coming up.

President obama on the campus of Stanford University with official reaction to the United Kingdoms decision to leave the European Union. Were standing by for live coverage. Well hear what the president has to say. U. S. Markets there reeling for britains vote to leave the European Union. Look at this right now. The Dow Jones Industrial is down almost 500 points. Well be watching the markets throughout the day. For more on how the brexit vote could impact the United States, your finances here in the United States, indeed, around the world. Chief commentator. Thank you very much for joining us. How unprecedented is this decision by the uk . It is pretty unprecedented. One of the countries joining ever more deeper economic trade agreements. This is the first time a major economy has made an affirmative decision to leave one as important as the European Union. One of the reasons markets are upset is that this is the first of a series and a referendum in countries like france, netherlands, sweden and this fall, we could nominate donald trump. This could lead to a global recession. Is that realistic . Probably overstated at the time. This is not like lehman brothers. We dont have a large number of banks going bankrupt. Its not like greece. Its not about to replace pounds with a different currency but the uncertainty over britain. Why all of these rules and arrangements get rewritten. But whether other countries follow the same direction. Thats going to be very negative for Business Investment and Business Investment has been the single biggest part of the economy lately. Down about 500 points. How worried should american investors be right now that their 401 k s and other investments would be in trouble . You see an adjustment downward to identify the fact that the world is a riskier place. Earlier this year, when the chinese were devaluing their currency. I do see whats happening as a portend of a much deeper bear market. I would not have to feel something you need to prepare for. But it does tell you the world is a much more uncertain place and Economic Growth weaker than it was. What would be the impact if it went the other way . A modest rally. In the days before the vote, the polls seem to show it was getting the momentum and begin to rally. We see today, such a shock to what investors had already you agree with tony blair, the former british Prime Minister that it was to vote against staying in the eu . Absolutely. If you look at the polls before the referendum, what is the most important issue to you . 30 sad sovereignty, classic of the European Union and 50 said immigration. I think that if immigration hadnt been there, in fact, if this vote taken place five or six years ago, that remain would have won quite soundly. Thank you very much.

The president of the United States now being introduced by the president of Stanford University, John Hennessey. The president will be speaking momentarily. Were told he will open his remarks with u. S. Reaction, official reaction to the stunning vote, the historic vote by the uk to leave the European Union. Well have live coverage of the president once he starts speaking. Take a look at the dow jones, the nor new york stock exchange. Its been pretty steady like that all day. A lot of investors are wondering, will it stay at 500 . Will it go up, will it go down . Is this just a oneday reaction, or is it going to be a reaction for days and days, weeks and months . I think its more likely to be a oneday reaction, mostly because what i see today are investors and traders repositioning them for an outcome they did not expect. If this were the first of a series of dominos, like we saw during the Global Financial crisis, you might want to brace for more days ahead. But i should caution theres a lot we just dont know at this point. This vote doesnt end the uncertainty, it just gives us more of it. First of all, the uk has to arrange a treaty to withdraw from the European Union. Then it has to arrange a second treaty. Then it has to sign about 50 new treaties with other countries, with which it previously only had relations via the European Union. And then theres the regulatory law that is no longer effective in the uk because it was done by the eu. So that basically creates this wall of uncertainty. As we were talking about earlier, it also gives i think energy to the populous. You actually saw the markets fall more in europe. Lets say france is taken out of the European Union. That would be a big blow. Yeah. The president of the United States has been introduced. He is now going to be speaking at Stanford University. Well listen to the president. Thank you so much. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much. Thank you. Everybody have a seat. Thank you so much. Thank you. Oh, thank you so much. This is a goodlooking group. Thank you. Well, first of all, let me thank president hennessey for the introduction, and the entire stanford family for letting us take over the campus for a few days. As some of you know, john is stepping down after 16 years as president of stanford. Fortunately for me, i cannot do that. To just stick around longer than my term limit. John, im sure theres some people who want you to stick around longer. But im confident that youre going to do extraordinary things, and we could not be prouder of John Hennessey and stanford and all the great work that they have done. So please give him a big round of applause. [ applause ] now, its summer break. Just so all of you know, stanford is not always this quiet. This school is unique. Folks ride on bicycles everywhere. And athletes are also computer engineers. This is the place that made nerd cool. [ applause ] we are thrilled to be here. I know im not the first speaker that youve heard from, but many of you have traveled here from a long ways. Weve got more than 170 countries from every region in the world represented. Some of you, this is the first time youre visiting our country. So let me just say on behalf of the american people, not only welcome to our Global Entrepreneurship summit, but welcome to the United States of america. [ applause ] we are glad to have you. I am not going to give a long speech, because what i really want to do is have a conversation with some Outstanding Young people who are part of our panel, and were going to introduce in a moment. But i do want to begin by offering some opening thoughts about the time in which we gather here today. And im going to start with the british peoples decision to leave the European Union. The vote that took place yesterday. Just a few hours ago, i spoke with Prime Minister David Cameron. David has been an outstanding friend and partner on the global stage, and based on our conversation, im confident that the uk is committed to an orderly transition out of the eu. We agreed that our economic and financial teams will remain in close contact as we stay focused on ensuring Economic Growth and financial stability. I then spoke to chancellor merkel of germany, and we agreed that the United States and our european allies will work closely together in the weeks and months ahead. I do think that yesterdays vote speaks to the ongoing changes and challenges that are raised by globalization. But while the uks relationship with the eu will change, one thing that will not change is the special relationship that exists between our two nations. That will endure. The eu will remain one of our indispensable partners. Our Nato Alliance will remain a cornerstone of global security, and in a few weeks well be meeting in warsaw for the nato summit. And our shared values, including our commitment to democracy and pluralism and opportunity for all people in a globalized world. That will continue to unite all of us. And that is the work that brings us here today. The world has shrunk. It is interconnected. All of you represent that interconnection. Many of you are catalyzing it and accelerating it. It promises to bring extraordinary benefits. But it also has challenges. And it also invokes concerns and fears. And so part of why this Global Entrepreneurship summit has been so close to my heart, something that ive been so committed to is because i believe all of you represent all the upside of an
