Respect Trump's mandate, handle disputes directly and privately', says Peter Mandelson
Briefly

Peter Mandelson emphasizes the importance of respecting Donald Trump's strong mandate for change while encouraging the UK to express its perspectives privately. Amid concerns over potential US tariffs, particularly in the steel sector, he believes that the UK can influence Trump's policies through direct communication. Mandelson acknowledges the complexities of the relationship, noting that while Britain may not fully agree with Trump's agenda, understanding his motivations is essential. The steel industry is particularly at risk, urging the government to act decisively as tariffs loom, potentially impacting jobs and exports.
We've got to take all these issues as they come, realise that the president has a very strong and clear mandate for change in the US.
I believe that, given the relationship that we have, we can always make our views known, best, by the way, directly and privately.
