Mr Trump said: “We’re going to be discussing many things today, we’re going to be discussing Russia/Ukraine, we’ll be discussing trade and lots of other items, and I think we can say we are going to be getting along on every one of them.
“We look forward to the day and the meeting, and we’ll be having a luncheon after this, and then another work session, and I believe we’re going to have a press conference at the end – so I look forward to it and, Mr Prime Minister, thank you very much.”.
Greeting the Prime Minister as he arrived, Mr Trump said that it is a “great honour” to have Sir Keir visit.
The US President said that he would be visiting the UK in “near future” as he met with the Prime Minister at the White House.
Sir Keir handed the US president a letter from the King as the pair were facing cameras in the Oval Office ahead of talks that are expected to cover a range of topics, including the war in Ukraine.
