King Charles Jokes with Trump: 'Without Britain You'd Speak French'
Share:
King Charles III made a lighthearted quip to Donald Trump during a White House dinner, telling the US President that without Britain, Americans would be speaking French. The exchange occurred during toasts between the two leaders, with the British monarch's comment appearing to reference Trump's previous criticisms of European allies, whom he has accused of relying on American defense spending since World War II. The dinner marked a diplomatic meeting between the UK head of state and the American president at the White House.
