President Trump's UK visit transitions to critical political discussions, focusing on Britain's Brexit strategy and the contentious role of China's Huawei in 5G networks.
Trump is anticipated to pressure the UK to ban Huawei from its 5G infrastructure, emphasizing U.S. concerns over shared security and data privacy.
Thousands of protesters are mobilizing across London, planning a "Carnival of Resistance" and flying a "baby blimp" to voice strong opposition to the U.S. president.
Beyond official talks, Trump has publicly weighed in on Brexit, endorsing a swift departure and suggesting key figures like Boris Johnson and Nigel Farage for future negotiations.
Macron condemns those who 'sought to bring down the Republic' after rioting mars nationwide protests
Yesterday 12:56Key points summarised by AI
President Macron condemned widespread rioting and looting during nationwide protests, blaming far-left activists and criminals for the "unrestrained violence" and vowing accountability for those who "sought to bring down the Republic."
Over 2,400 arrests were made as protests against rising living costs and poor school conditions escalated, causing extensive damage to public buildings and businesses in cities like Paris, Limoges (where City Hall burned), Marseille, and Lyon.
The unrest, which organizers hoped would revive the "yellow vest" movement, saw political leaders trade blame, with Macron instructing prefects to protect public buildings and potentially ban future protests to prevent further disorder.
