Mercury nature and style of President Donald Trump’s leadership often left the world leaders in loss of how to find a commitment to the US leader, but the UK appears to have impressed the magic formula when it comes to winning Trump.
Not only was the UK to sign a trade agreement with Trump for the first time, reaching a lower car tariff and steel and exported to the states, but also seems to have won the president at a more instinctive and emotional level.
Both Trump and British Prime Minister Kire Starmer appeared in a joyful mood on Group seven summit on Monday“
“The UK is very well protected. You know why? Because I like. That’s their final defense,” Trump replied.

This is not a description that many global leaders can boast when it comes to their relationship with the US president. What makes it even more unusual is that Trump and Starmer-Leader of the Left Party Central Lifet, which has legal experience, are natural political shares.
On Monday, Trump hinted at various ideological hikes, but continued to show warmth to the Prime Minister who stopped at one point to pick up the trade agreement that Trump accidentally threw it at the G7 summit, calling it “a friend.”
“We are very long-standing partners, allies and friends, and we made friends in a short period of time. It is a little more liberal than I am,” Trump joked.
Praise Trump apparently heavily won and easily lost as Former friends turned into enemies like Elon Musk Perhaps indicates, not new. Just a few weeks after his post in January, Trump said that Starmer was engaged in “very good work”.
“I get along well with him. I really like it,” said Trump about the British leader, adding: “He represented his country in terms of philosophy. I can’t agree with his philosophy, but I have a very good relationship.”
How did the UK win over Trump?
There are a number of reasons why Britain has received a magical formula to touch on the president’s commitment, some of which are pure luck and others through cultural practice and economic policy.

First of all, as shown above, Trump seems to be honest allegedly Starmer, despite their very different origin and personality.
Trump has spent many years in the business world, creating his real estate empire before entering politics and relying on his political ideology on his invariably “the American agenda. Starmer, a glass and almost unpretentious human rights lawyer, overseen the prosecution before joining politics.
Trump was struck by Starmer at the beginning of his second term, Describing Starmer as a “very good man” who did “very good work”.
Secondly, what is undoubtedly helping the UK is that there is a cultural connection between the US and the UK, as is often advertised in its “special relationship”. Trump is Anglofille selflessWith family ties with Britain (his mother had a Scottish heritage), and he had previously enjoyed the Pompevka, the theatrical performance and the soft force that the UK does so well.
Trump noticeably enjoyed his first state visit to the UK in 2019, when the late Queen Elizabeth II received the President and the first lady Melania Trump, and obviously he was granted when St.

Before the UK and the US announced a trade agreement in May, the Vice President of JD Vance mentioned that he would come because he said, he said “The President really loves the United Kingdom.”
“He loved the Queen (Elizabeth II). He admires and loves the king (Charles). It is a very important relationship. He is a businessman and a number of important business relations in (Britain). But I think it’s much deeper.
Thirdly, and much less romantic, another reason for the UK is preferred with the US, is that, putting it straight, it has not yet got to the other way Washington, when it comes to trade and, for the most part, foreign policy, despite some discrepancies in connection with the degree of support for Ukraine.
One of the main reasons for the UK was able to conclude a trade agreement with the US so fast was that it was already good in Trump’s administration, Not running a long -term trading surplus when it comes to exchange of goods from the US. – One of Trump’s biggest mistakes. Although the president does not seem to notice that the UK has a trade surplus when it comes to services.
The UK may have also gained Trump’s commitment if it did not avenge when the United States imposed tariffs at its basic level in April. Instead, the British government decided to negotiate quietly rather than a reaction to the knee that could make a wedge between London and Washington, as well as Starmer and Trump.
