King Charles powerful enough to stop emerging ‘WW 3’ with US visit

King Charles is only way out for the UK to mend relationship with the US

King Charles has great responsibility lying on his shoulder ahead of his US visit.

His Majesty is urged to use his diplomacy to bring peace and harmony between US President Donald Trump and UK Prime Minister, Kier Starmer.

This comes amid Starmer’s refusal to join war against Iran with Trump.

Speaking about his His Majesty’s state visit could be beneficial, expert Samara Gill speaks on the Sun’s Royal Exclusive show : “I mean, this will be his most important task to date as the King.

“I mean, we’ve got the world on a knife’s edge at the moment, sort of teetering on World War Three,” she adds.

“I’m not trying to be over dramatic here. But yes, Trump is unpredictable… the king is pretty much the only person that he actually listens to.

“If you think about it, he listens to no one, Trump… The King is going to have to do diplomatic gymnastics here in order to pull something off,” she notes.
