\u2022 At the White House: <\/strong>King Charles and Queen Camilla were honored at a state dinner hosted by President Donald Trump<\/a> and first lady Melania Trump. It was the first formal white tie event there since President George W. Bush hosted Queen Elizabeth in 2007.<\/a> <\/p>\n

\u2022 Toast remarks: <\/strong>The US president hailed the close ties<\/a> between the two nations. During his toast, the King began by offering sympathies over a shooting Saturday during the White House Correspondents\u2019 Dinner<\/a> before speaking about the centuries of historic bonds. <\/p>\n

\u2022 Congress speech: <\/strong>Earlier, Charles addressed a joint meeting of Congress<\/a>, marking the second time a British monarch has done so. He was warmly welcomed in the chamber, and while much of his speech<\/a> focused on the kinship between the US and the UK, he also pushed back on several issues that Trump has sparred with Britain over in recent months. <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
