While Donald Trump is hosting King Charles and Queen Camilla for the state visit, the war in Iran is ongoing. During the State Dinner with the royal couple on Wednesday, Trump dropped a jaw-dropping claim about the king.
King Charles and Queen Elizabeth’s visit to the U.S is ongoing. After arriving in Washington, D.C. on Monday, the royals spent time with President Trump and First Lady Melania Trump at the White House.
The relationship between the two countries has been troubled for some months, not least because Trump has stated that the U.K. has not fulfilled their duties as an ally to help it in Iran.
Charles and Camilla are therefore on a somewhat diplomatic mission, trying to mend relations between the two countries. On Tuesday night, the monarch delivered an address to Congress, in which he stated that the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom has been, is, and will remain important.
“Standing here today, it is hard not to feel the weight of history on my shoulder – because the modern relationship between our two Nations and our own peoples spans not merely 250 years, but over four centuries. It is extraordinary to think that I am the nineteenth in our line of Sovereigns to study, with daily attention, the affairs of America,” King Charles said.
“So, I come here today with the highest respect for the United States Congress; this citadel of democracy created to represent the voice of all American people to advance sacred rights and freedoms.”
