Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer met with U.S. President Donald Trump at the White House to discuss Ukraine, trade, and technology. Starmer sought U.S. support, including fighter jets, for a peacekeeping mission in Ukraine, though Trump expressed reluctance to provide extensive security guarantees. The UK committed to increasing defense spending to 2.5% of GDP by 2027, though Trump urged further increases. The meeting also touched on potential U.S. tariffs on British steel and explored partnerships in cutting-edge technology and artificial intelligence.
