President Trump expressed optimism about a rapid US-UK trade deal at a press conference with Sir Keir Starmer, emphasizing artificial intelligence's role in economic growth. He hinted that such a deal could alleviate tariffs currently threatened against the UK. Starmer argued that the existing trade relationship is fair and reciprocal. Past negotiation issues mainly involved US agricultural exports and UK technology taxes. Despite tariff threats from Trump, both leaders convey a cautious optimism for a cooperative trade future post-Brexit.
"Instead of over-regulating these new technologies, we're seizing the opportunities that they offer," he said.
"He tried. He was working hard I tell you that. He earned whatever the hell they pay him over there."
