King Charles III will address the U.S. Congress on Tuesday, highlighting the shared history and democratic values between the UK and the US. He will become the first British monarch to do so since his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, in 1991. Charles will meet with President Donald Trump at the White House, a closed-door meeting that may be less awkward due to Trump's fondness for the royal family. The visit comes amid challenging U.S.-U.K. relations, with Trump's tariffs on the UK and criticism of Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Trump will host Charles for a state banquet at the White House on Tuesday evening. The king's visit is intended to celebrate the US's 250th anniversary of independence from Britain.
