President Donald Trump has praised the "cherished" bond between the United States and the United Kingdom ahead of a meeting with King Charles III. The encounter comes at a critical juncture for the US-UK "special relationship," which has reportedly hit one of its lowest points since the Suez Crisis in the 1950s.
King Charles III is scheduled to deliver a speech to a joint session of Congress, where he is expected to highlight the historical depth and enduring significance of the bilateral ties. The address aims to reinforce the alliance amid current diplomatic strains.
The meeting underscores efforts to repair and strengthen the relationship between the two nations during a period of global uncertainty.
