Outgoing UK Prime Minister Theresa May: 'I am very pleased to welcome the president of the United States of America on this state visit to the United Kingdom.'
The two leaders held a joint news conference after meeting earlier at 10 Downing Street where they continued discussions about a post-Brexit trade deal.
The second day of Trump's state visit was being filled with more official business than ceremony, with his meeting with May and business leaders to discuss trade and other matters. The president expressed confidence that the two allies will ultimately reach a"substantial" and"fair" trade deal. Trump also praised what he said has been an"outstanding" relationship with May, saying he"very much appreciate[s] the relationship we’ve had."
