President Obama has encouraged the leaders of European countries to remain open to working with the next administration, particularly on matters involving international security and economic policy, the White House said Friday.

Obama’s face-to-face meeting with the leaders of Britain, Germany, France, Italy and Spain will likely be his last of the sort before he leaves office. The president met privately with German Chancellor Angela Merkel on Thursday and with Greek Prime Minister Alexis Tsipras in Athens on Tuesday.
