Starmer of the UK Aims for Robust Trade Ties with the US Post-Trump Tariffs

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer is focused on fostering a robust trade partnership with the United States, particularly in light of recent tariff talks under President Donald Trump. Starmer considers a strong trading relationship beneficial for both the UK and the EU. He has dismissed the idea of rejoining the EU trade bloc and instead aims to strengthen connections in defense, energy, and trade. Starmer has expressed appreciation to Scholz for his visit during a demanding re-election campaign.
