Keir Starmer próbuje uniknąć „ogromnie szkodliwej” wojny handlowej z Stanami Zjednoczonymi, w obliczu ostrzeżeń, że może to pogrążyć Wielką Brytanię w recesję. Premier Minister starał się zminimalizować perspektywę nałożenia wzajemnych ceł na Donalda Trumpa, pomimo jego nadzwyczajnej próby przejęcia Grenlandii. Zachęcał również liderów UE do powstrzymania się od używania taryfy „bazuca” w odwecie na prezydenta Trumpa, ostrzegając, że wojna handlowa spowodowałaby ogromne szkody gospodarcze i zwiększyła ryzyko dalszego osłabienia istotnych sojuszy.
