President Donald Trump, during a meeting with Prime Minister Keir Starmer, hinted that the United Kingdom could avoid sanctions he plans for the EU, saying it is a 'very different country' where he has investments.
Trump launched a lengthy attack on the EU over trade policy, claiming that people thought it was "politically correct" to say that the US's trade relationship with the EU was good even if it wasn't.
Then, referring to Great Britain, he said that things were different here because they were not the same.
" I can say that, we're here for a different reason - we're talking about a very different country. This is a country where I have investments there. I own Turnberry, I own Aberdeen, and I own a wonderful place called Doonbeg in Ireland. So, I have a wonderful warm place for your country ," Trump said.
At this point Keir Starmer interrupted, saying that US-UK trade is balanced.
"And our trade, obviously, is fair and balanced and, in fact, you have a bit of a surplus. So we're in a different position there. And obviously we've contributed a lot in relation to Ukraine ," said Keir Starmer.
Asked if he was saying that meant there would be no sanctions on the UK, he replied that he would review the issue for Britain.
" Well, I'll have to take a look. We're going to have a good discussion today, and we have some very talented people on the other side, and we have some people who are maybe not as talented as them, but they're pretty good. We're going to have a good discussion and we're going to talk about it ," Trump said.
