Trump accuses Starmer of seeking to 'join wars after we've already won'

"The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East. That's OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don't need them any longer - But we will remember. We don't need people that join Wars after we've already won!"

"We don't need them. It's not the right time. It would have been nice to have them two weeks ago."

"The UK government has remained clear that it has no interest in joining the wider offensive campaign in the Middle East."

President Trump publicly dismissed the UK's consideration of deploying two aircraft carriers to the Middle East, stating the US does not require them and that it would have been more useful two weeks earlier.
