The divorce between the United Kingdom and the European Union has officially begun. Tuesday, British Prime Minister Theresa May signed the letter to EU Council President Donald Tusk to trigger Article 50 of the Lisbon Treaty, which allows a member to leave the union.
Wednesday morning, British Ambassador to the EU Sir Tim Burrow handed the letter to Tusk.
The UK now has two years to leave the EU.
