What's harder than diamond? Theresa Mayhem's Brexit of course.
France has insisted that the UK must first sort out the terms of its exit from the European Union before talks can move on to future relationships.
President Francois Hollande told British Prime Minister Theresa May that talks must settle the UK's financial bills and the rights of citizens.
Other pro-EU politicians meeting in Malta expressed a similar view, saying they would not allow "cherry-picking".
Mrs May called for simultaneous talks during exit negotiations.
But in a phone call, Mr Hollande warned her that the withdrawal agreement should come first, a common line among European leaders.
