British Prime Minister Keir Starmer say he will seek a strong trade relationship with the U.S. after President Donald Trump suggested he would slap Europe with tariffs after hitting America’s biggest trading partners with import taxes.

The UK will seek a “strong trading relationship” with the US, Sir Keir Starmer has said, as the threat of a trade war looms after Donald Trump announced new tariffs. The US president has introduced a 25% levy on goods coming from Mexico and Canada, and a 10% trade tax on Chinese goods, which will come into effect on Tuesday.
