President Donald Trump cautioned the U.K. against strengthening ties with China following Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s meeting with President Xi Jinping in Beijing, where they discussed a renewed “strategic partnership.” Trump labeled such business engagements as “very dangerous,” emphasizing that China is not a solution for Western economies. Starmer described the meeting as “very productive,” addressing issues like climate cooperation and human rights. The visit marks Starmer as the first British prime minister to visit China in eight years, reflecting a push by Beijing to re-engage with Western allies.
