US EditionKing Charles III to deploy tiara diplomacy as UK prepares to welcome Trump for second state visit
- King Charles III is hosting U.S. President Donald Trump and Melania Trump at Windsor Castle for a three-day second state visit from September 17 to 19, 2025.
- The visit comes after British Prime Minister Keir Starmer personally invited Trump while representing King Charles III during their February 2025 meeting at the White House, making this Trump’s second official state visit to the UK since 2019.
- The visit includes a private state lunch, a lavish banquet with the Grand Service silver-gilt dining set of over 4,000 pieces, ceremonial events, and meetings at Chequers with Starmer.
- Authorities are preparing a comprehensive 24-hour security operation with armed officers, response vehicles, and CBRN protective gear, while protests organized by the Stop Trump Coalition will take place in London and near Windsor.
- The visit aims to bolster US-UK ties amid shifting global policies, though critics highlight concerns over rising far-right links and call for strong UK leadership against racism, reflecting mixed domestic reactions.
