Starmer also contrasted his approach with that of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, whose visit to China this month \u2014 and subsequent speech in Davos<\/a> declaring the old world order \u201cruptured\u201d \u2014 prompted Trump to threaten a new wave of tariffs on Ottawa.<\/p>\n

Trump was asked about the U.K.\u2019s pursuit of closer ties with Beijing as he attended the premiere of the film \u201cMelania\u201d in Washington. The U.S. president saved his harshest criticism for Carney but also warned Britain about its business dealings with China.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s very dangerous for them to do that,\u201d Trump said. \u201cAnd it\u2019s even more dangerous, I think, for Canada to get into business with China.<\/p>\n

\u201cCanada is not doing well. They\u2019re doing very poorly, and you can\u2019t look at China as the answer.<\/p>\n

\u201cI know China very well. I know President Xi is a friend of mine. I know him very well. But that\u2019s a big hurdle to go over.\u201d<\/p>\n

A U.K. government official said the U.S. was aware of Starmer\u2019s trip and Britain\u2019s objectives in advance.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Starmer also contrasted his approach with that of Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, whose visit to China this…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":730055,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3,4],"tags":[748,943,1395,473,32,393,4884,2817,807,2129,1144,712,811,479,1201,16,15,49,6863,1764,1773],"class_list":{"0":"post-730054","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-uk","8":"category-united-kingdom","9":"tag-britain","10":"tag-canada","11":"tag-china","12":"tag-defense","13":"tag-donald-trump","14":"tag-england","15":"tag-great-britain","16":"tag-intelligence","17":"tag-keir-starmer","18":"tag-mark-carney","19":"tag-northern-ireland","20":"tag-scotland","21":"tag-security","22":"tag-tariffs","23":"tag-trade","24":"tag-uk","25":"tag-united-kingdom","26":"tag-united-states","27":"tag-visas","28":"tag-wales","29":"tag-xi-jinping"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/115982173792477775","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730054","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=730054"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/730054\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/730055"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=730054"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=730054"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=730054"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
