Ammon News - U.S. President Donald Trump told Reuters ​on Friday that Iran, NATO and the ‌United Kingdom's digital services tax are among the topics he plans to discuss with King Charles ​during the king's visit to Washington next week.

"I'm ​going to talk about everything," Trump said ⁠during a phone interview. "I'm going to ​talk about it. He is a friend of mine, and he ​is a great guy."

Charles' four-day state visit starting Monday will mark the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence from ​Britain.

He will make stops in Virginia, New ​York and Washington, D.C., where he will privately meet with ‌Trump ⁠and deliver an address before the U.S. Congress.

The visit also comes against the backdrop of the worst relations between the two countries since ​the Suez Crisis ​in 1956, ⁠with by Trump of Prime Minister Keir Starmer over his ​refusal to join the attack on ​Iran ⁠and dismissive remarks about Britain's military capabilities.

The U.S. president has also threatened to impose tariffs on Britain ⁠if ​Starmer does not drop ​the digital services tax.
