European Union lawmakers are meeting in emergency session to discuss the UK's unprecedented vote to leave the EU, set to call for Britain to trigger the exit process immediately.
A non-binding draft resolution drawn up for Tuesday's session says the process should be launched once Prime Minister David Cameron notifies the outcome of the British referendum to EU leaders.
Cameron is to share his views about the referendum and perhaps Britain's future at a summit in Brussels on Tuesday afternoon.
