Starmer 'has not been helpful' to US

The Citizen

March 04, 2026

US President Donald Trump said the historical relationship between his country and Britain was “not like it used to be”, in an interview to British daily newspaper The Sun, amid a major transatlantic fall out over US-Israeli strikes against Iran.

"This was the most solid relationship of all. And now we have very strong relationships with other countries in Europe,” he said, singling out France and Germany, after UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer's initial refusal to allow the US to use British military bases in its war with Iran.

Trump said Starmer “has not been helpful’, adding: “I never thought I'd see that. I never thought I'd see that from the UK. We love the UK.”
