Farage told The Telegraph, [With Trump] you have to be straightforward. You’ve got to not be too hesitant.
“He fires questions with great rapidity and he thinks very quickly.
“So they are quite full-on conversations…he is sharp as hell.”
Farage added, “I wish the Prime Minister luck, but Trump and he are very different people…Chagos is difficult.
“Aligning with EU food standards threatens any free trade deal with America. There are some very difficult issues here.”
The Prime Minister also wants a US “backstop” providing security guarantees for Europe, which, he believes “will be vital to deter Russia from launching another invasion in just a few years’ time.”
“The US is our most important bilateral alliance.
“So this week when I meet President Trump I will be clear. I want this relationship to go from strength to strength.”
