  • Starmer to visit US as he faces showdown with Trump over tariffs and Ukraine - Trump 'is not willing to tolerate' VAT, US president's trade chief says, raising fears UK could face 21 per cent tax

The article discusses UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's upcoming visit to the United States, where he is expected to meet with President Joe Biden to discuss critical issues like the UK's relationship with the US, the ongoing situation in Ukraine, and potential trade tariffs. This visit comes at a time when former President Donald Trump has threatened to impose a 10% tariff on all imports if he wins the next election, which could significantly impact UK-US trade relations. Starmer's agenda includes reinforcing the UK's commitment to supporting Ukraine against Russian aggression, discussing the implications of Trump's tariff proposals, and possibly addressing the broader geopolitical landscape. The visit is seen as an opportunity for Starmer to establish his foreign policy credentials and navigate the complexities of international diplomacy amidst shifting political landscapes.
