He said, “As far as immigration is concerned, you’d rather join together, or you won’t have Europe anymore … You have to stop this terrible invasion. We weren’t supposed to enter our country last month. We’ve taken a lot of people. Many countries in Europe, some of the leaders don’t let them.”

Back home Trump is struggling with the most serious political crisis of his second term of office and expresses irritation over the continuing control of the investigation ensembles of his administration related to Jeffrey Epstein and the circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death in prison in 2019.
Trump is also planned to return to the UK for a state visit from 17 to 19 September, organized by King Charles. This will become the first modern world leader to receive two British state visits.
