Donald Trump has accepted an invitation from King Charles III for a second UK state visit, Buckingham Palace confirmed. The visit, from September 17 to 19, will see Trump and First Lady Melania hosted at Windsor Castle, as Buckingham Palace undergoes renovations. Traditionally, second-term presidents do not receive state visits, but Trump is an exception. A full ceremonial welcome and state banquet are planned, with senior royals, including the Prince and Princess of Wales, attending. The visit follows French President Emmanuel Macron's recent Windsor visit. Security concerns mean Trump’s itinerary is expected to avoid large public events. (PC: BBC)
