Burnham 'gets it' says Trump, as the two leaders meet for first time
Donald Trump says he can do business with Andy Burnham at their first face-to-face meeting in New York, but criticises the "terrible" Chagos deal.
On Tuesday, US President Donald Trump expressed optimism about an eventual US-Iran deal during a UN meeting with British Prime Minister Andy Burnham. Trump stated that Iran and the United States had been communicating and believed a settlement would be reached. The two leaders reportedly had a strong rapport, with Burnham describing Trump as a "natural business person."
They discussed various topics, including Ukraine, the Falkland Islands, and trade. However, Trump reiterated his opposition to Britain's plan to resolve the status of a US military base in Diego Garcia, calling it a "terrible deal." The US President's stance on the matter further strained their already strained relationship.
