The U.S.-Israel war on Iran has fueled a disagreement between U.S. President Donald Trump and U.K. Prime Minister Keir Starmer. Britain hasn't joined in the strikes on Iran and Trump said in an interview published in a British tabloid on Tuesday that the trans-Atlantic relationship is “not what it was.” Starmer initially blocked U.S. planes from using British bases for the first attacks that began on Saturday. He later allowed U.S. bombers to use bases in England and the island of Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean to strike Iran's missile program. Starmer told lawmakers that "any U.K. actions must always have a lawful basis and a viable, thought-through plan.”
