“President Trump departed Windsor Castle Thursday morning, calling King Charles III a ‘great gentleman and a great king,’ as the president was set to conclude a two-day state visit to Britain with a meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer, a joint news conference and announcements of business deals involving American and British companies,” the New York Times reports.
“The heavily stage-managed trip has helped Mr. Trump escape political tensions at home, at least briefly, and emphasized longtime American-British ties. The visit to Windsor Castle mostly avoided overt politics and differences between the allies over difficult issues, including trade and the wars in Ukraine and Gaza.”
“But Mr. Starmer is expected to raise those topics during his meeting with Mr. Trump, and both men could be quizzed on them at a news conference before the president flies back to Washington on Thursday afternoon.”
