The US President Donald Trump arrived in the UK late on Tuesday for an unprecedented second state visit filled with pomp and pageantry, aimed at showing that the two long-time allies have solid relations, despite differences – and tension – over the Middle East. The carefully choreographed two-day visit will blend modern diplomacy with royal glitz. “My relationship is very good with the UK, and King Charles is my friend,” Mr Trump said as he left the White House. “It’s the first time this has ever happened, where somebody was honoured twice, so it’s a great honour,” he added.
