President of the United States followed the protocol, but did not fail to say, even in the country of others, that he lives in the best of all territories
Outside there were images of Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein, but when you have a whole menu in French and wines that cost hundreds of euros everything becomes easier to manage.
It was just the way in the United Kingdom, where the president and the first lady of the United States were received with pomp and circumstance. King Carlos III seems to know how to please Donald Trump, who was visibly happy with the entire ceremony.
It is not to be admired, therefore, that the US President see in this second state visit to the United Kingdom “one of the greatest honors” of his life. Words that he himself said to a 150 -person audience, including some of the richest people in the world, as well as technology mandard such as Sam Altman or Jensen Huang, Open Ai and Nvidia owners, respectively.
After all, this dinner at Windsor castle is also on the sidelines of the technological prosperity agreement that both sides have reached, narrowing ties in artificial intelligence, quantum computing and nuclear energy.
A package that could even seem symbolic, were it not for almost 40 billion euros to widen his eyes to anyone who lay in cash.
“This comes at a time when the largest artificial and technology intelligence companies – such as Microsoft, Nvidia, Google, Open AI or Corewave – commit to robust the UK artificial intelligence infrastructure with $ 42 billion,” the British government wrote in a statement.
With such values on the table, dishes such as the Bellotine of Poulet Fermier en Robe de Courgettes – which is like who says Norfolk Organic Chicken Bellotine wrapped in Courgettes, with thyme and a salty jus, that this state dinners thing always requires that the dishes are presented in French – they even know even better.
If dishes like this are accompanied by wines like Wiston Estate, Cuvée, 2016 or Domaine Bonneau de Martray, Corton-Charlemagne, Grand Cru, 2018 then, even better. Hundreds of euros in each of these simple bottles.
Here can be seen the menu chosen for the night. As tradition dictates, it was written in French (AP)
With all this in front of him, or some things coming and others coming, Donald Trump wanted to make known to the British royal family that he was very grateful for the invitation, mocking until he hopes to be, at least for a while, the last US president to be honored with two state visits.
“It’s a unique privilege,” he shot, showing “a lot of respect for you and your country.”
All spectacular, therefore, because Donald Trump was amazed at Windsor Castle and the “remarkable son” of King Charles III, Prince William, who will one day be King.
All on the offspring of a “special relationship” between the two parts, even if the United States is “the best country”, as he himself did not fail to say.
“We had a very sick country for a year. Today, I believe we are the best country anywhere in the world,” he said.
Following the label, Carlos III was less fervent, even though he introduced one of the strong topics of this trip. The war, of course. “At a time when tyranny threatens Europe again, we and our allies have strongly maintained to support Ukraine to stop aggression and ensure peace,” he said, never referring to Russia.
And it was in this same record that the king thanked the president of the United States for the “personal commitment to find solutions to some of the most intractable conflicts in the world to ensure peace.”
Far from the days when the two countries walked to the turns – Carlos III himself recalled that we approached the 250th anniversary of the United States – the cocktail created for tonight wanted to remember that. A “whiskey sour transatlantic” that maintained the lighter tradition of these state banquets.
Donald Trump’s state visit will follow, moving more and more from the protocol and entering the political discussion at the highest level. Apart from all agreements that can be achieved, there is no way not to see that wars in Ukraine and the Middle East will be one of the high points.
