Why Starmer has more to worry about than his inability to play golf when he meets Trump at Turnberry
Keir Starmer trusted that he had never played golf before, which proved to be a bilateral problem with Donald Trump at the US President Turnberry course in Scotland on Monday.
The location partially explains the nerve energy around the Prime Minister when Trump discusses a few days to relax in his own Scottish courses.
“Golf is not something you can get a weekend,” he said, a source close to the Prime Minister, and foresees the two of them holding 18 holes on the championship track.
However, a potential collision course in the golf is prepared for another important duo with a US president, in which Sir Keir’s concerns creates an unexpected friendship.
There will be a steel industry at the top of the agenda, and then all the issues that Ukraine and Gaza – Sir Keir and Trump still seem too far away.
Steel men
If it was the equivalent of a green in a golf field to rank the trade agreement, Starmer would have been in the third attempt with a shooter trying to sink an inviting ball inviting to the flag.
We already had two signature ceremonies for a trade agreement to deal with Trump’s “Freedom Day” tariffs.
In May, the first opportunity to be described as a “big and beautiful agreement tı seemed to have solved almost everything. Then the two men met in Canada last month, until the president immediately entered the ground with a signed agreement.
But even from now on, there was a very important problem – steel.
Trump put 25 percent of tariffs on steel and then increased to 50 percent for the rest of the world and threatened that Britain would rise from 25 to 50 percent if it did not solve the problem.
Time is exhausted and the taxpayer now needs to take zero percent when Starmer is promised in May with the future of the British Steel and his entire industry looking at a abyss.
Unfortunately, it seems to have no sign of it.
Palestinian recognition
This weekend, there is a lot of speculation in Labour that Keir Starmer wants to recognize Palestinian state of French President Emmanuel Macron on Thursday.
However, he cannot do so until he meets Trump – otherwise he will dominate the inevitable order.
US Secretary of State Marco Rubio clearly stated that the US is disgusted with France and that Macron thinks that Hamas was the “rewarding”. A similar angry opinion would be taken with the United Kingdom.
However, the two have to discuss the problems with a crisis. Somehow, Trump’s enthusiasm for Broheing a ceasefire needs to be renewed, and some think that Starmer is the man to do it.
The president’s ability to increase his ego became a plan for international leaders to cope with the second Trump period.
Without the US leadership, there was a danger that the war would continue, and thousands of people trapped in Gaza are starving.
In many ways, Starmer will talk to Macron and German Chancellor Friedrich Merz on Friday after an emergency phone call for the E3 group of England, France and Germany.
Not to forget Ukraine
The Middle East may not even have the biggest international priority of Starmer in these talks.
Desperate for a solution to the Ukrainian problem, and recently Macron and Merz are moving with the “willing coalition özgün to provide protection for Ukraine after a peace agreement.
O and Macron announced new details and plans for the willing coalition after the French President’s last visit.
But they are moving without the only thing they need – if things go wrong, the US promise to support them military.
Trump resisted this idea by choosing to get a share of the mineral sources of Ukraine. He didn’t show any interest in Starmer’s plan. But the British Prime Minister has to take him with him on Monday.
State visit
This is the pioneer of a much greater visit in September, although Trump is a special journey to look at his personal business interests (play golf in his own courses).
A state visit came from the king and was delivered by the Prime Minister, but the details of the political side of the historical journey will be discussed.
It could be a strange moment that Macron should address the joint session of parliament houses, and there will be no Trump.
The pretext that it was the day after the rise of the parliament does not hold water because their deputies and peers returned to hear that Late Pope Benedict addressed them under the same conditions in 2010.
There will be no problems, including Brexit Bad Boy Andy Wigmore, who will show that British Trump friends, Nigel Farage and others are better treated on the right on the next few days.
How can he win Starmer Trump?
It is understood that the Prime Minister has found a solution to deal with the problem of having to play golf at the last social event in Westminster.
“We throw a coin. If we win the president, we play golf, if we win if we play football,” he proposed.
Considering how much Trump offered the World Club Cup to them, Considering how much Chelsea enjoyed players, this could be a solution.
However, Sir Keir will receive more than a coin to convince the president on these other issues.
The only important thing is that Trump values relationships and trusts and trusts people directly with him.
When he returned to the G7 in Canada, Trump clearly stated that Britain would be successful with him because he loved Starmer.
He said: “England is very well protected. Do you know why? Because I like them. The Prime Minister has done a really good job. He did what other people mentioned for six years and did it.”
Starmer will need all the charm that seems to be reserved for international tasks to achieve what he wants on Monday. However, recent history shows that they can be in comprehension.
