thank you so much for your company everyone. on day 2 of his 1st official state visit to britain u.s. president donald trump has described the relationship between his country in the u.k. as the greatest alliance the world has ever known during a joint press conference with prime minister theresa may in london both leaders repeatedly stressed the special relationship between their 2 nations playing down the recent tensions between them but may also said they had openly discussed their differences such as on climate change or dealings with iran trump for his part held out the prospect of a substantial trade deal between the u.k. and the us nations as the u.k. makes preparations to exit the european union the united states is committed to

a phenomenal trade deal between the u.s. and the u.k. there is tremendous potential in the trade deal i say probably to add even 3 times of what we're doing right down tremendous potential right now by very gets must our correspondent in london as she's near her fellow guests where i understand where a lot of protests have been taking place against mr trump's visit begetter trump still not a fan of the european union but he came bearing gifts offering outgoing prime minister made the possibility of a phenomenal trade deal any details on what a phenomenal trade deal might look like. well the count really be details right now because the u.k. is still a member of the european union so they can pave the way for a trade there but it can't happen just yet there was no quick movement in the press conference when president trump was asked if every part of the economy should be on a trade before this trade deal and he said yes every part of the economy should be

negotiated which is when to reason may intervene because she knows that there are some parts of the u.k. economy that very severe very many people feel very sensitive about for example the health service and many people feel that the n.h.s. which is a public health service should be protected from any interference by u.s. companies so there are going to be a lot of details of course in these negotiations that will take years and also controversial interest when it comes to this trade deal so it's not a done deal by any means it's not a done deal by any means but always apparent in that press conference is that mr trump seem to have the upper hand just how badly does the u.k. need trump. well he's coming here in a moment of great instability all of the country to reason may is on the way out there are fundamental questions on bragg's that that still have not been onset so it's in this situation that the u.k. is seeking to strengthen the toys with the u.s.
