US President Trump tells the BBC that the King's visit could help prepare UK relations
- Trump said he believed his relationship with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer could "recover" if he "opened the North Sea" and if his "immigration policies became strong" - but added that "if he doesn’t, I don’t think he has a chance".
- "whatever I’m doing, it seems to be working very well" when asked about his threats towards Iran.
- "The other side is dying to make a deal,"
Context
Trump's comments suggest a potential thaw in US-UK relations, emphasizing that energy policy and immigration reform in the UK are crucial for recovery. This has implications for the GBP and could influence market sentiment towards UK assets and broader geopolitical dynamics, especially in light of his stance on Iran.
