Trump Calls UK–China Relations ‘Very Dangerous’ as Starmer Visits Shanghai

Former U.S. President Donald Trump has warned that it would be ‘very dangerous’ for the United Kingdom to strengthen its economic ties with China, as British Prime Minister Keir Starmer continues a high-profile visit to the country. Trump made the comments while speaking with reporters at the premiere of a documentary about former First Lady Melania Trump. Starmer’s trip is the first visit to China by a British prime minister since 2018 and is aimed at improving diplomatic and economic relations with Beijing.
