U.S PRESIDENT TRUMP TO ARRIVE UK TODAY- Trump will later be joined by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio
U.S President Donald Trump is set to arrive in Britain later today. Trump is set to be greeted over the next two days by King Charles and Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Starmer is also expected to emphasise the promotion of investment deals to draw the two nations’ economies closer.
A spokesperson for Starmer told reporters that the prime minister “sees this state visit squarely through the lens of delivering for working people,”. He also mentioned a US investment pledged over the weekend to create 1,800 jobs in Britain and a civil nuclear partnership which could lower energy prices.
Trump will also be joined by US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, who will hold talks with Britain’s newly-appointed Foreign Minister, Yvette Cooper.
The two governments are expected to seal a trade agreement with three pillars: a new science and technology partnership to strengthen the tech sectors of both countries, cooperation in civil nuclear power, and advances in defence technology cooperation.
