King Charles’s Throne Speech will be watched for signals to Trump
May 27, 2025
When King Charles III delivers the Speech from the Throne on Monday to open Parliament, his words will be monitored closely in Britain for any comments he makes about the United States and how that might impact U.K.-U.S. relations. The British government regularly touts the country’s “special relationship” with the U.S. and Prime Minister Keir Starmer has been keen to exploit U.S. President Donald Trump‘s admiration for King Charles to curry favour with the President. Mr. Starmer has refrained from criticizing Mr. Trump’s trade war and invited him to London for a state dinner hosted by the King, making him the only U.S. President to be given that honour twice.
