- President Trump characterized the agreement as thorough and all-encompassing, adding that numerous additional agreements are currently progressing well and are expected to be announced in the near future.
- This trade deal will offer political gains for UK Prime Minister Starmer and relief for British exporters, though it may not address Trump's core concerns on trade deficits.
