European Council President Donald Tusk will convene on Wednesday, June 29, a summit of European leaders to discuss the "political and practical implications of Brexit" in a first such meeting excluding the participation of the United Kingdom since it joined the bloc, an official invitation by Tusk issued on Friday reads.

According to Tusk's letter, the meeting involving UK Prime Minister David Cameron's participation will be held Tuesday, while the meeting of the 27 members states' leaders, excluding Cameron, will be held the following day.

"I have no doubt that due to the negative outcome of the UK referendum we will mostly need to devote our European Council to a discussion on its political consequences. It is my intention to ensure that we have sufficient space to debate both with Prime Minister Cameron, and then separately with the 27 Heads of State or Government," the invitation letter said.

On Thursday, the United Kingdom held a referendum to determine whether or not the country should leave the European Union. According to the final results, 51.9 percent of voters, or 17.4 million people, decided to support Brexit, while about 16.1 million opposed it.
