7:45Now PlayingEd Price, former British trade official and nonresident senior fellow at New York University, said that while the US is embroiled in a 'hot mess' war with Iran, there is still a convincing argument to back the use of force in stopping Iran from having a nuclear weapon. Price also discussed King Charles' visit to Washington and said that US pressure on NATO has 'freaked out' the UK, but is worth it to protect the world order.
King Charles III called on the US to maintain its leadership role in the world in a speech to Congress in which he highlighted NATO and urged “unyielding resolve” to defend Ukraine.
Charles used his address to a joint session of Congress — the first such address by a British monarch in more than three decades — to argue for preserving the alliance between the UK and US. The king appealed to the shared heritage between the two nations, littering his remarks with references to culture, religion and principles behind America’s decision to declare independence 250 years ago.
“I pray with all my heart that our alliance will continue to defend our shared values, with our partners in Europe and the Commonwealth, and across the world, and that we ignore the clarion calls to become ever more inward-looking,” Charles told the assembled lawmakers, with Vice President JD Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson seated behind him.
The speech on Capitol Hill came on the second of his four-day state visit, a trip that has thrust the king into an unusually prominent diplomatic role. The relationship between the US and the UK have fallen to their lowest level in decades amid a messy public feud between President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Keir Starmer.
