Why does Trump love the UK? Britain’s magic formula to win over Trump

The merciful nature of President Donald Trump and the global leadership style often left on how to find good with the leader of the United States, but it seems that the UK has hit a magic formula when it comes to beating Trump.

The UK was not the first to sign a commercial deal with the president, as it achieved a lower tariff for the car, steel and exports to the states, but it seems that it has won it at a more instinctive and emotional level.

Trump and British Prime Minister Kiir Starmer also appeared in a fun mood in A group of seven summit on MondayAfter taking another step towards the official character of the trade deal of the United States of America agreed in May, Trump was asked whether Britain would be protected from additional definitions.

Trump replied, “The UK is well protected. You know why? Because I love them. This is its final protection.”

The president said: “I just signed it, and this was done,” describing the agreement as “a fair deal for both of them.”

“We have many other people coming. But you see the level of enthusiasm very good, but the relationship we have is great.”

This is not a description that many international leaders can boast about when it comes to their relations with the American president. What makes it more strange is the fact that Trump and Starmer-the Labor leader on the left left with a legal background-are not natural political tools.

Trump alluded to their various ideological backgrounds on Monday but continued to show his warmth towards the Prime Minister, who stopped in one moment to capture a commercial agreement that Trump had unintentionally shot down while revealing it at the Group 7 summit, describing him as a “friend.”

Trump jokingly said: “We are partners, allies and friends for a long time, and we have become friends in a short period of time. It is a little more liberal,” Trump jokingly said.

Trump’s praise, apparently won and lost easily Former friends turned enemies like Elon Musk You may witness, not new. Just a few weeks after taking office in January, Trump said that Starmer is “a very good job.”

“I agree with him well. I love him a lot. He represented his country in terms of philosophy. I may not agree with his philosophy, but I have a very good relationship with him,” Trump said of the British leader.

Trump admired an early tension in his second term in his position, Starmer described it as “a very good person” was “very good.”

Second, what helps the United Kingdom undoubtedly is the presence of a cultural link between the United States and the United Kingdom, as shown in their “special relationship.” Trump It is a self -recognized AnglophileWith a family links to Britain (his mother was a Scottish heritage), and he had previously enjoyed guilt, competition and soft power that the UK is well done.

Trump clearly enjoyed his first visit to the United Kingdom in 2019 when the late Queen Elizabeth II and First Lady Melania Trump hosted, and it seemed clear that when Starmer presented earlier this year a handwritten letter from King Charles III who invited him to visit the other state.

Before the United Kingdom and the United States announced a commercial deal in May, Vice President JD Vance indicated that one of them is coming because, he said, he said, “The president really loves the United Kingdom.”

“I love the queen [Elizabeth II]. He admires and loves the king [Charles]. It is a very important relationship. He is a businessman and has a number of important trade relations in [Britain]. But I think it is much deeper. There is a real cultural rapprochement. Of course, America is mainly the country of Anglo. “

Third, and less romantic, there is another reason that makes the UK a preferential relationship with the United States is that, frankly, unprecedented in the wrong side of Washington when it comes to trade, and most of the time, foreign policy, despite some differences about the degree of support for Ukraine and Israel.

One of the main reasons behind the United Kingdom was able to conclude a trade deal with the United States very quickly that it was already equal to the Trump administration, After not operating a permanent trade surplus when it comes to exchange of goods with the United States. – One of the largest Bugbears Trump. Nevertheless, it seems that the president may ignore the fact that the UK has a trade surplus when it comes to services.

The United Kingdom may also have won with Trump when it did not detract when the United States imposed customs duties in April, albeit at the baseline level 10 %. Instead, the British government chose to negotiate quietly, instead of having a poor reaction that could have led a wedge between London and Washington, Starmer and Trump.
