King Charles urges Trump and Congress not to abandon Nato and Ukraine | BBC News
King Charles has delivered a direct message to President Trump and US lawmakers, in a speech to Congress in Washington. He praised NATO, the military alliance which Trump has questioned in recent months. And the King urged the President not to abandon Ukraine, in its war with Russia. The King also spoke of the “unbreakable” friendship between the US and UK, comments which led to one of many standing ovations. The King reminded Congress that the only time Nato military alliance’s collective defence had been invoked was after the 911 attacks on the US And he went on to say: “Today, Mr Speaker, that same, unyielding resolve is needed for the defence of Ukraine and her most courageous people. It is needed in order to secure a truly just and lasting peace”. Jane Hill presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Daniela Relph and Sarah Smith in Washington.
