"The state visit on Monday afternoon, by far the most high-profile and consequential of Charles's reign, marks the 250th anniversary of the US Declaration of Independence from British rule."
"The long-planned visit has become enmeshed in a political spat between the two countries over the US-Israel war on Iran, which led Trump to voice deep displeasure with the British government for failing to support the offensive."
"Buckingham Palace said on Sunday that the king is greatly relieved to hear that the president, first lady and all guests have been unharmed."
