US President Donald Trump has declared that America's trade deal with the UK 'can always be changed'. In an interview with Sky News, Trump asserted, 'We gave them a good trade deal, better than I had to,' discussing the nuances of the trade relationship amid recent tensions.
Critically engaging with Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer's foreign policy, particularly regarding the UK's response to the US-Israel conflict with Iran, Trump conveyed disappointment in what he perceived as a lack of support from the UK. He described the current bilateral relationship as having 'been better' while noting that these issues will not overshadow the planned state visit of King Charles and Queen Camilla.
When pressed on his thoughts about the UK, Trump responded, 'It's the relationship where when we asked them for help, they were not there.' Nevertheless, he maintained that his long-standing relationship with the King remains unaffected by the diplomatic strains, expressing affection for the sovereign and anticipation for their meeting during the royal visit.
