00:00U.S. President Donald Trump formally begins his unprecedented second state visit to Britain on Wednesday, September 17.
00:08Trump, a royal fan, has made little secret of his delight at being the first elected politician to be invited twice by the British monarchy.
00:15He posted on his Truth Social account in February,
00:18I love King Charles.
00:19Upon arrival, he says,
00:21I have a lot of things here that, they warm my heart. It's a very special place.
00:25King Charles and the royal family will roll out the red carpet for the president when he arrives at Windsor Castle with a carriage procession, gun salutes, a military fly-pass, and lavish banquet.
00:35Britain says it will be the largest military ceremonial welcome for a state visit in living memory.
00:40Prime Minister Keir Starmer seeks to use the trip to deepen economic ties, secure billions of dollars of investment, discuss tariffs, and press the U.S. President on Ukraine.
00:49Police said four people were arrested on Tuesday following a projection of images of Trump alongside late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein onto one of Windsor Castle's towers.
