Donald Trump says "meeting in the not too distant future for topics of mutual interest" with UK PM

New UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham held his first Cabinet meeting after replacing predecessor Keir Starmer, vowing a “one-team approach” and announcing a tax reduction on energy bills funded by canceling a digital ID program. Burnham, who has limited foreign policy experience, faces challenges including managing ties with US President Donald Trump, according to reports. The two leaders spoke by phone shortly after Burnham took office, with the prime minister’s office saying he emphasized defense and security. In a social media post, Trump described the discussion as positive and indicated they would hold a future meeting on shared concerns. The call was part of a broader outreach to other world leaders. The relationship matters as the UK navigates sluggish economic growth and ongoing conflicts in Ukraine and elsewhere.
