UK Prime Minister Rishi Sunak faced an awkward moment before cameras while hosting Dutch PM Mark Rutte, as the two leaders got briefly locked out of 10 Downing Street. Viral footage shows Sunak welcoming Rutte for discussions on migration, Middle East and Ukraine, and posing for photos outside the PM's official residence. As they continued chatting, Sunak encountered errors with the door, forcing them to wait outside for custodians to open it. The incident sparked amusement online over the glitch at the British PM's iconic address. Sunak was hosting Rutte for wide-ranging talks on battling illegal migration, cooperating on Ukraine conflict, and issues like Rwanda deportation policy amid ongoing crises.
