United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer will visit the United States on September 13, the White House announced on Friday.
Starmer will hold a bilateral meeting with US President Joe Biden during his trip to Washington. "The leaders will have an in-depth discussion on a range of global issues of mutual interest, including continuing robust support to Ukraine in its defense against Russian aggression, securing a hostage release and ceasefire deal to end the war in Gaza, protecting international shipping in the Red Sea from Iranian-backed Houthi threats, and advancing a free and open Indo-Pacific," the White House stated.
This will be Starmer's second visit to the White House since he assumed the role of UK prime minister in July, the first one taking place during the most recent NATO summit.
