DONALD Trump has accepted an unprecedented second state visit to the UK after Sir Keir Starmer personally handed the former president a letter from King Charles inviting him back to Britain.

It will mark the first time any US president has been given two state visits.

Trump didn’t hesitate, declaring: “The answer is yes. On behalf of our wonderful First Lady, Melania and myself, the answer is yes.”

Trump also heaped praise on King Charles, calling him “a great gentleman, a wonderful man.”

In his letter, His Majesty wrote: “Quite apart from this presenting an opportunity to discuss a wide range of issues of mutual interest, it would also offer a valuable chance to plan a historic second state visit to the United Kingdom.

“As you will know this is unprecedented by a US President.

“That is why I would find it helpful for us to be able to discuss, together, a range of options for location and programme content.

“In so doing, working together, I know we will further enhance the special relationship between our two countries of which we are both so proud.”

The note was signed “Yours Most Sincerely, Charles” at the end.

The bombshell invite comes as Starmer and Trump go head-to-head over the future of Ukraine, with fears growing that the US could pull the plug on military support for Kyiv.

Starmer, who shook hands with Trump outside the West Wing before their meeting, is making a bold diplomatic play—leveraging royal connections to strengthen ties as the US reshapes its global priorities.

Trump, who hailed the British PM as a “special man,” confirmed his UK trip, saying: “I’ll be going there and we expect to see each other in the near future.”

The visit will be Trump’s second, following his first in June 2019 when he was hosted at Buckingham Palace by the late Queen Elizabeth II.

A senior UK government source said Balmoral was the likely venue, given Trump’s Scottish heritage and his two golf courses north of the border.

“Balmoral would be the obvious choice,” they said.

UKRAINE CRUNCH TALKS

Starmer is set to push Trump for US airpower to protect British peacekeepers in Ukraine should a fragile peace deal be reached with Vladimir Putin.

It is understood the PM will ask for spy planes, satellite surveillance, and the ultimate deterrent — missiles and bombers — to stop Russia from attempting another invasion after any ceasefire.

Trump, who has upended US policy on Ukraine, has called Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky a “dictator” and is working to bring Russia in from the cold.

His administration has already faced accusations of shutting Europe and Ukraine out of negotiations, with his officials reportedly holding secret meetings with Putin’s team in Saudi Arabia.

Meanwhile, Putin has ordered his spies to use “all available diplomatic and intelligence resources” to thwart Western efforts to shape the outcome of talks.
