U.S. President Donald Trump has arrived in Britain for his second state visit, greeted with royal pageantry and political tension. The three-day visit includes a ceremonial welcome at Windsor Castle by King Charles III, a state banquet, and talks with Prime Minister Keir Starmer at Chequers.
Washington says more than $10 billion in trade and defense deals will be announced, covering technology, civil nuclear energy, and defense cooperation. U.S. officials call the visit a showcase of the “special relationship” and a platform for new investment between the two countries.
The trip comes as protests unfold in London and Windsor. A new Ipsos poll shows 61% of Britons dislike Trump, though nearly half support the visit going ahead.
Starmer faces his own challenges after dismissing Lord Mandelson over alleged links to Jeffrey Epstein, a scandal that risks overshadowing the carefully managed diplomacy.
Analysts say Trump relishes the royal treatment but warn that the visit may be more about symbolism and ego than substance. Europe, meanwhile, watches closely as both sides reaffirm ties amid uncertainty over Ukraine, trade, and global security.
Tensions in the region remained high on Tuesday (10 March), as the United States and Iran exchanged increasingly sharp warnings, including threats over the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a critical artery for global oil supplies.
Iran's new Supreme Leader, Mojtaba Khamenei, was 'lightly injured,' an unnamed Iranian official said on Wednesday, as Tehran and Israel continued to exchange missile and drone strikes - all the latest updates throughout the day on AnewZ.
Global oil prices reached a four year high on Monday (9 March), surpassing $119 a barrel, as conflict in the Middle East rumbled on. Meanwhile, the Turkish Military said NATO air defence systems destroyed a missile fired from Iran towards the country.
U.S. President Donald Trump called his recent phone conversation with Russian President Vladimir Putin “very good.” The two leaders spoke on Monday about the situation in Iran and other international issues.
