The new US President, Trump and the British Prime Minister May jointly before the press came. They stressed similarities and Trump made a whole new experience: a very direct question at the end of the reporters.
It was a short, concise matter. 18 minutes of mutual Insurance, that is the Basis for good bilateral relations – the press conference of U.S. President Donald Trump and the British Prime Minister, Theresa May was about to end already. Donald Trump has placed particular emphasis on the ceremonial framework. The British Prime Minister his first foreign guest of state – it was a great honor, so Trump.
The substantive points left Trump, Theresa May. The insured often with a side view of consent Trumps what you said. For example, on the subject of NATO: “We are United in the view that NATO is the bulwark of our common defense. We have confirmed our steadfast commitment to the Alliance today. Mr. President, you said that you would stand 100 percent behind NATO.” Trump didn’t disagree.
in Doing so, he had referred to NATO on several occasions in the past, as obsolete. The British head of government stressed that the sanctions against Russia should be maintained. Trump said it was too early to say something about that. He will make calls on Saturday for the first Time with Russian President Vladimir Putin.
New experience for Trump
And the US President made a for him unusual experience: British Reporter asked him straight out to his idiosyncratic style: “the British Prime Minister to have confidence in you, where in the past, your opinion have changed?” asked a Journalist.
And more: “people ask, how they come together is clear: the hard-working pastor’s daughter and the bold TV-eccentric. Have you found similarities?” “I’m not so brazen as you might think. And I think we will understand us well,” said Trump.
A new experience for the US President: journalists from other countries, which it is difficult to prohibit the mouth. Trump looked surprised. Such questions, he is not living in the United States. He would have scolded any Reporter to be home after such a question verbally.
Mattis decides on the use of torture
Then it was on to the next topic. Trump explained that he let his Minister of defence James Mattis, the decision as to whether the USA would use torture. The was in contrast to him, for example, against Waterboarding.
Theresa May, reiterated its interest in a bilateral trade agreement with the USA: “I am convinced, that a trade agreement is in the national interest of both States. It will strengthen our relations, especially now, where we leave the EU and the us in the world to turn to,” she said.
in addition, the British Prime Minister conveyed an invitation of the Queen, who took on Trump gratefully. Perhaps he will try what he tried already, when Theresa May: sympathy awaken with his family history: “My mother was born in Scotland. In Stornoway, the deepest in Scotland.”
The British Prime Minister just smiled politely – after all, there are in Scotland may soon back a start-up, to declare independence from England. After 18 minutes of Trump and his guest then retreated to further discussions.
