Trump toast “special relationship” with King Charles III at the state banquet

President Donald Trump gave a toast on Wednesday evening before the state dinner with King Charles III at the castle of Windsor in which he defended the “special relationship” that the United States and the United Kingdom share.

“His Majesty spoke with eloquence of the link that inspired Sir Winston Churchill – the bust is in the oval office at the moment – the magnificent bust of Winston Churchill, to invent the expression” special relationship “, but seen from American eyes, the word ” special ” does not start to do him justice,” said Trump. “We are joined by history and destiny, by love and language and by transcendent links of culture, tradition, ancestry and destiny.”

Shocking cases reveal the repression of British Orwellian freedom of expression

Trump joined King Charles and other members of the royal family, as well as First Lady Melania Trump, at the Windsor castle for the second unprecedented state visit on Wednesday morning.

Royal events generally avoid getting involved in partisan issues while the family avoids public comments and remains neutral on the field button problems – A practice that Trump has sometimes broken.

But the president’s toast seemed to remain neutral even when he has touched a problem that has raised a few feathers in the United States and the United Kingdom in recent months-freedom of expression.

“The British Empire has laid the foundations of the law, freedom, freedom of expression and individual rights practically wherever Union Jack has ever stolen, including a place called America,” he said in a message that could raise eyebrows while the British government disputes criticisms relating to free-food issues.

British online security laws were a question of litigation and stormy political blows not only in Great Britain, but among the best American leaders like Vice-President JD Vance, who was not present on Wednesday at the state visit.

Other criticisms of freedom of expression have occurred in the United Kingdom concerning the laws on abortion, online comments and what some, such as right-wing reform, the head of the United Kingdom, Nigel Farage, have described an “authoritarian” repression similar to laws observed in places like North Korea.
