British Prime Minister Keir Stormer recently handed Trump a letter from King Charles in the White House.
Trump accepted the monarch to visit Britain, making the US president the first elected political leader of modern times to host two state visits by Charles.
The US President immediately opened and read the letter, gently controlled that it was carrying the king’s signature, which he then described as “beautiful” and held up for the cameras to see.
An article published in the Telegraph said, “The king, who wrote to President Trump, who invited him to Britain was not because his majesty wanted it, but because his prime minister thought an invitation was in national interest.” “
The article read “When Stormer had told the King the wishes of his ministers, His Majesty had to comply with.”
“The king will not be drawn into politics. He will follow the advice of his prime minister. State visits are an important part of soft power. And soft power is all we have left, ”the Telegraph article quoted a senior politician.
This said, “If the king objected, would refuse to refuse to have precipitated a constitutional crisis – the prime minister’s and government’s resignation and a general election on the question. If storming such an election remained in office, and the king still refused, it could force an abdication.” “
The article read: “Fortunately, no monarch has tried to ignore his or her government’s wishes since the 17th century, which is why the monarchy attracts such respect.” “
