Donald Trump And sir Kir Stamor Were Apparently on the mission to make each other’s life easier At his joint press conference on Thursday.
Despite this Many prickly topics Threatening to put a cloud on an otherwise successful state trip, the two pasted the boot despite the difficult questions.
From Lord Mandelson’s relationship for Jeffrey Epstein To Vladimir PutinInvasion of Russia, Independent After the pair’s media grilling, you run through the major takeaairs.
Jeffrey Epstein
Perhaps the biggest risk for Sir Keir and Sri Trump was a scam around Lord Mandelson’s relationship with late Podophile Jeffrey Epstein.
The US President has its historical links to the Financer, and Sir Kir sent his ambassador to Washington last week, in which he exchanged a series on a series of emails exchanged with Epstein.
Sky’s Beth Rigby was the only journalist to broke the subject, and Mr. Trump only rejected the question saying: “I don’t know them … I had heard this and perhaps the Prime Minister would be better to speak about that.” It comes despite the painting of the pair in the Oval office less than six months ago.
Sir Keir reiterated his well-worn line that “information came to light” after Lord Mandelson’s appointment, which forced him to dismiss his former Trump-Visperor.
Disagreement over Palestinian state
On Thursday, in an open disagreement between the pair, Mr. Trump said that he opposed Sir Kir’s plan to recognize a Palestinian kingdom.
The Prime Minister said that the time of the expected decision in the coming days was nothing to do with the end of the state’s visit.
But, asked about the move, Mr. Trump said: “I have disagreed with the Prime Minister on that score, in fact we have some disagreement.”
Mr. Trump said that his focus was on securing the release of Israeli hostages which were still held with Hamas.
Sir Kir confirmed that he had discussed his plans and a Palestinian state would be a part of the oured “part of the overall package that we expect we take us from the horrific position for a safe and safe Israel results that we do not have, and a viable Palestinian state”.
He also described Hamas as terrorists, inspired Sir Trump to give Sir Keir an auxiliary and exaggerated pat.
Small boats
In another headline-hutstone moment, Mr. Trump was asked to advise Sir Keir how to repeat his success in limiting the number of migrants entering the US through irregular routes.
The US President said that illegal migration could “destroy” the countries and urge the Prime Minister to include the army. The advice was held on the same day when the government announced that it had first sent the migrants back to France under one-one-out deal.

Mr. Trump told Sir Kir, “To put millions of people in our country with what I saw, I could not stand to see it, and we have done a great job.”
He said: “I think your situation is very similar. You have people coming and I told the Prime Minister that I will stop it, and it does not matter that you will call the army out, no matter what you use.
“It destroys countries from within and we are actually removing many people coming to our country.”
Putin let Trump go down
Mr. Trump also told Vladimir Putin, he said that he felt “really going down” by Russian autocratic.
The President said that he felt that Russia’s attack on Ukraine would be the easiest struggle for him, seeing his strong relationship with the dictator.
But a peace deal has stopped, and Russia’s Ukrainian citizens continue to kill.
“He disappointed me,” Mr. Trump said, when asked about the ongoing war.
He said: “I am very respected to tell you that we have solved seven wars, seven wars, wars, which were ineligible, wars that could be negotiated or not, the US has done seven of them.
“What I thought would be the easiest because of my relationship with President Putin, but he disappointed me.”
But Mr. Trump said that he does not regret meeting Putin in Alaska, saying that Russia would eventually be forced to “leave” the war if the restrictions mount.
free speech
As expected, Sir Kir was asked about free speech in UK and is it in danger.
Tension has increased between PM and Trump administration on issues like online security act.
Sir Kir said: “The free speech is one of the founding values of the United Kingdom, and we protect it with jealousy and fiercely and always. And we will tolerate any border of free speech.
“I draw a limit between free speech and speech of people who want to pedalia and suicide (on) social media for children.
“And so I am for all free speech, I am also to protect children from things that will harm them: pedophiles, who commit suicide, which is a terrible result for individual, especially teenagers. And so this is the balance we strike.”
For his share, Mr. Trump claimed to cancel Jimmy Kimmel’s late night talk show as he is “not a talented person and a bad rating”. The President said that this is not an independent speech issue and Mr. Kimmel was “expelled for lack of talent”.
Pawan Chakkis
Another classic wind of Mr. Trump’s press conference is the US President to target Pawan Farms.
Wind energy is a “very expensive joke”, he said with Sir Keir on Thursday, praised as a “unprecedented” of the North Sea oil.
He said: “You have a big property that we talked about, it is called North Sea. North Sea oil is unprecedented. And I hope, because I love this country.
“You know, my mother was born in Scotland … and I want this country to perform well. And you have great assets that you are going to use, I believe under this Prime Minister, thanks.
Sir Kir said that oil and gas would be “part of the mixture” for many years to come, but also needed to invest in renewable.
The PM said, “This is the mixture that is really important. And the approach I have taken on it is the same approach I say to many other things, a practical approach,” PM said.
