Trump reveals what he chatted with Charles: ‘King more interested in trade, loves environment too’

After concluding his historic two-day state visit to the United Kingdom, US President Donald Trump revealed the key issues he discussed during his meeting with King Charles III. Trump’s historic trip with his wife, Melania Trump, saw him stop off at Windsor Castle to meet the royal family before he met British Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Chequers.

In an exclusive conversation with Fox News after the trip, Trump revealed that he discussed wide-ranging issues with the British monarch. “I think he was more interested in trade, you know, he loves the environment too, he talks about that a lot, but he was more interested in trade than anything else,” the president told the American news outlet.

“We’re working on a trade deal with the UK, which is going to be a good deal for both. And then we’re working on it with the Prime Minister and his various representatives, I think it’s going to be a great deal for both,” he added.

While speaking to The Daily Telegraph, White House officials said that Trump was so happy with his trip to the UK that he is now planning to invite the British monarch to the US. “It was a really fantastic trip. The British know how to do this perfectly. They set the bar high for their trip to see us,” the official remarked.

Meanwhile, during a joint presser with Starmer, Trump urged London to “ call in the military” to eliminate the Channel small boat crisis. “It doesn’t matter if you call out the military, it doesn’t matter what means you use, but it destroys countries from within," Trump said.

The remarks from Trump came on the same day the UK sent one migrant back to France under Starmer’s “one-in-one-out” deal, despite it being enacted 43 days ago, with 30,000 having made the Channel crossing to these shores this year alone.

“It’s a very hard chore; we were given a very, very bad hand,” Trump averred. “We have to remove them and we are removing them, we have no choice and I feel very strongly about it,” he added. The American leader insisted that migration issues in the UK and the US are “very similar” and that London should take stringent measures to deal with them.
