Trump's visit creates challenges for Buckingham Palace diplomacy

Donald Trump's upcoming state visit to the UK presents challenges for Buckingham Palace. The royal family is navigating tensions following Trump's recent comments about Ukraine's President Volodymyr Zelensky, which may complicate diplomatic relations. King Charles III is expected to meet Zelensky in a show of support for Ukraine. This meeting comes amid concerns that the palace may have overextended its hospitality towards Trump, who is set to receive an unprecedented second state visit. The palace is working to manage perceptions after previous visits with Trump did not go smoothly. Aides are focused on ensuring that any diplomatic tensions are addressed privately during the visit.
