Why Starmer will need to use the King as his Trump card in Greenland row
"From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging."
"At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story. The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls."
"The proposed state visit by King Charles III on July 4 in the rose garden at the White House - to mark the 250th anniversary of the US Declaration of Independence- has taken on huge significance. With Donald Trump in the process of imposing new tariffs over Greenland and renewing threats against other allies, there are few levers Sir Keir Starmer can pull to persuade the US president to be more reasonable. But the royal visit this year is perhaps the only lever which can now be deployed to stop an international crisis from spiralling out of control. If there is one card the UK holds in its dealings with Mr Trump, it is the royal family."
Quality journalism covers topics from reproductive rights and climate change to Big Tech and political finance. Investigations include Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC and a documentary highlighting American women fighting for reproductive rights. The publisher does not use paywalls and asks donors to fund reporters on the ground who speak to both sides. A proposed state visit by King Charles III to the United States on July 4 would mark the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence and carry diplomatic weight. Amid tariff threats and strained relations, the royal visit is presented as a rare lever the UK can use to temper President Trump's actions.
