Trump’s Positive Relationship with Starmer Despite Philosophical Differences
- U.S. President Donald Trump praised UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer for doing a “very good job thus far” and highlighted their “very good relationship.”
- During a press talk on January 25, 2025, Trump said, “I get along with him well. I like him a lot. He’s liberal, which is a bit different from me, but I think he’s a very good person, and I think he’s done a very good job thus far.”
- Trump mentioned that he would have a phone call with the British PM “over the next 24 hours.”
- The issue of acquiring the autonomous Danish territory of Greenland came up again, with Trump stating, “I think we’re going to have it,” adding that 56,000 residents of the island “want to be with us.”
- Meanwhile, Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen reportedly made it clear in a fiery phone call with Trump last week that Greenland is not for sale.
