British Prime Minister Keir Starmer recently delivered a letter from King Charles to Donald Trump during his visit to the White House. The letter, which extended an invitation to the U.S. president, marks Trump as the first elected leader in modern history to be hosted for two state visits by the monarch.
Speculation has emerged that had King Charles refused to send the letter, it could have triggered a constitutional crisis, potentially forcing him to abdicate. As head of state, the monarch is expected to maintain diplomatic relations regardless of personal or political differences. The invitation underscores the importance of the UK’s relationship with the U.S. and King Charles’ role in upholding tradition and stability in state affairs.
