US President Donald Trump has become the first American leader to receive an unprecedented mark of attention from the British monarchy — an invitation to a second state visit to the UK. King Charles personally expressed his desire to see the President back in the United Kingdom, and this invitation was officially conveyed during a recent meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer at the White House.
Prime Minister Starmer, while in Washington, personally handed Trump a letter from the king, stressing that the president's first state visit in 2019 was a "huge success." Sir Keir added that the decision to re-invite is a "historic" step, demonstrating the special relationship between the two countries and the deep respect for President Trump as a leader.
Trump, commenting on the invitation in the Oval Office in front of reporters, expressed his gratitude for the honor of being received back in the UK. "This is a fantastic country, and it will be a great honor for me to visit it again," he said, noting the warm relations between the United States and Great Britain.
The state visit, the date of which has not yet been determined, will be another important symbolic act highlighting the strength of the Anglo-American alliance. Previously, such visits were usually granted only to the most important world leaders, and the fact of Trump's second invitation indicates a high level of trust and mutual understanding between the two countries.
It is worth noting that Trump's first visit in 2019 took place with a wide program of events, including ceremonies, meetings with the royal family and participation in state banquets. The upcoming visit is also expected to be large-scale and eventful, with an emphasis on strengthening economic, political and cultural ties between the United States and Great Britain.
This move by the British monarchy highlights the unique role of Donald Trump in the history of modern international relations and symbolizes the strength of the "special partnership" between the two countries that has existed for many decades.
