King Charles III Arrives in Washington for Historic State Visit Amid Tight Security
King Charles III and Queen Camilla landed in Washington on Monday for a four-day state visit aimed at reinforcing ties between the UK and the US as America marks its 250th anniversary. They are the first British royals to visit since 2007 and the first state guests of President Trump’s second term. During the trip, the King will meet President Donald Trump and First Lady Melania Trump at the White House. He is set to address Congress, becoming only the second British monarch to do so, and attend a state dinner. Buckingham Palace says the visit will highlight shared history, economic and security partnerships, and close people-to-people connections. Enhanced security measures followed a recent shooting at a presidential event, but officials confirmed the visit will proceed as planned.
