President Donald Trump said on Thursday that a “full and comprehensive” trade deal has been agreed with Britain.

Trump wrote on Truth Social: “The agreement with the United Kingdom is a full and comprehensive one that will cement the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom for many years to come.”

He added, “Because of our long time history and allegiance together, it is a great honor to have the United Kingdom as our FIRST announcement. Many other deals, which are in serious stages of negotiation, to follow!”

Trump did not provide further details.

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer’s office said he  would give an “update” about U.S. trade talks later in the day.

“As you know, talks with the U.S. have been ongoing and you’ll hear more from me about that later today.” Starmer said at a defense conference in London.
