US-UK relationship

EghtesadOnline: Heading into a crucial week for his presidency, Donald Trump seized on the deadly London terror attacks to settle scores and promote his own agenda, turning to a tactic that helped get him elected but has shown no benefit so far toward helping him govern.

EghtesadOnline: The “special relationship” appeared to be back on after U.K. Prime Minister Theresa May suggested the FBI was to blame for the intelligence leaks by U.S. officials on the Manchester bombing. Donald Trump, she said, told her the breach was “unacceptable.”

EghtesadOnline: Donald Trump risked provoking a diplomatic row with one of the U.S.’s closest allies, and embarrassing Prime Minister Theresa May ahead of a general election, as he amplified his mockery of London Mayor Sadiq Khan over a terrorist attack that killed seven people.

EghtesadOnline: President Donald Trump deflected blame for having angered the U.K. government by repeating an allegation he was spied on by British intelligence, and declined to back away from the unsubstantiated claim that his predecessor, Barack Obama, put him under surveillance.
