King Charles III Arrives in at White House, Aims to Restore the UK-US Relationship

The four-day trip includes a White House tea, a 21-gun salute and a speech to Congress as the two allies mark America’s semiquincentennial.

  • King Charles III arrived at the White House on Monday for a four-day state visit celebrating 250 years of U.S.-U.K. ties, with trans-Atlantic relations under strain.
  • Political tensions loom as President Donald Trump recently lambasted Prime Minister Keir Starmer over his refusal to support U.S. military attacks on Iran, dismissing Britain's leader as "not Winston Churchill."
  • A shooting at a Washington dinner attended by Trump on Saturday sparked a last-minute security review of the state visit, which includes a Congressional address and commemorative events.
  • Despite tensions with Starmer, Trump told the BBC the visit could "absolutely" help repair trans-Atlantic ties, repeatedly calling Charles his "friend" and a "great guy."
  • Addressing a joint session of Congress today, Charles will emphasize the enduring "love affair" between the nations and democratic values, aiming to transcend transient political disputes.
