One is to ramp up the rhetoric as to how outraged we all are or not,\u201d Starmer said, adding that the other route is to \u201croll up my sleeves\u201d and call the two countries\u2019 presidents and find a path forward.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Starmer also convened a summit of European leaders on Sunday in an effort to shore up support for Ukraine after Friday\u2019s chaotic meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cBecause my reaction was we have to bridge this, we have to find a way that we can all work together because in the end we\u2019ve had three years of bloody conflict now, we need to get to that lasting peace,\u201d Starmer told the BBC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During Starmer\u2019s visit to the White House on Thursday, the British prime minister delivered Trump an invitation from King Charles for a state visit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThis is a letter from your majesty, the king. It\u2019s an invitation for a second state visit. This is really special. This has never happened before. This is unprecedented,\u201d Starmer said, touching Trump\u2019s shoulder. \u201cThis is a very special letter, I think the last state visit was a tremendous success \u2026 this is truly historic.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe answer is yes,\u201d Trump said in response to Starmer asking if he would take the invite to Windsor Castle. \u201cWe look forward to being there and honoring the king and honoring really the country.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The invite marks the first state visit of Trump\u2019s second term. During his first term, Trump met with Queen Elizabeth II in July 2018 and again during an official state visit in June 2019. The president also went to Buckingham Palace for a NATO summit in December 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Charles became king in 2022, during the Biden administration, following Elizabeth\u2019s death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Trump has met other members of the royal family since November\u2019s election. He met with Prince William as the president-elect in December in Paris after the two attended the Notre Dame Cathedral\u2019s reopening. After that meeting, Trump said Charles is \u201cfighting very hard\u201d through his cancer diagnosis, in an interview with the New York Post.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>British Prime Minister Keir Starmer dismissed calls to cancel President Trump\u2019s invitation for a state visit to the United Kingdom, following the explosive Oval Office meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Friday.
