Trump Invites British King To US On A State Visit
(MENAFN- IANS) Washington, March 31 (IANS) President Donald Trump on Tuesday announced that Britain’s King and Queen will undertake a state visit to the United States from April 27 to 30, with a White House banquet planned as part of commemorations marking America’s 250th anniversary.
In a post on social media, Trump said,“Melania and I are pleased to announce that Their Majesties, the King and Queen of the United Kingdom, will visit the United States for a Historic State Visit from April 27-30th, which will include a beautiful Banquet Dinner at the White House on the evening of April 28th.”
He described the visit as a“momentous occasion” tied to the anniversary celebrations of the United States.“This momentous occasion will be even more special this year, as we commemorate the 250th Anniversary of our Great Country,” Trump said.
The President added that he looked forward to engaging with the British monarch.“I look forward to spending time with the King, whom I greatly respect. It will be TERRIFIC!” he said.
Separately, the Royal Family confirmed the visit, saying it would take place“on advice of His Majesty’s Government, and at the invitation of The President of the United States”.
“The King and Queen will undertake a State Visit to the United States of America,” the statement said.
According to the British royal household, the programme will highlight the depth of ties between the two countries.“Their Majesties’ programme will celebrate the historic connections and the modern bilateral relationship between the UK and the US, marking the 250th anniversary of American Independence,” it said.
Following the US leg of the trip, the King is also scheduled to travel to Bermuda. The Royal Family said,“The King will continue to Bermuda to undertake His Majesty’s first Royal Visit as Monarch to a British Overseas Territory.”
The visit comes at a symbolic moment for both nations, with Washington preparing to mark 250 years since independence, while London emphasises continuity in its transatlantic partnership.
State visits typically include ceremonial welcomes, bilateral meetings, and high-profile events such as a state banquet hosted by the US President at the White House.
