US President Donald Trump has urged UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer to take tougher action on immigration. Trump said Britain should even \u201cuse the military if needed\u201d to stop migrant arrivals. The two leaders met on Thursday, September 18, during Trump\u2019s state visit to the UK.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s remark came as Starmer defended his \u201cone in, one out\u201d migrant returns deal with France. The Prime Minister stressed the need to prove the policy can work. Both leaders also signed a major tech investment deal covering AI, quantum, and nuclear energy.<\/p>\n

Trump\u2019s Immigration Advice to Keir Starmer<\/h2>\n

Trump told reporters that uncontrolled immigration could \u201cdestroy countries from within.\u201d He urged Starmer to use all available means to control the flow of migrants. \u201cIt doesn\u2019t matter if you call out the military,\u201d Trump said.<\/p>\n

Starmer responded carefully. He highlighted the UK\u2019s recent agreement with France to return migrants. He said proving this policy can succeed is vital for Britain\u2019s credibility.<\/p>\n

According to Reuters, the meeting at Chequers also included symbolic events, such as a Red Devils display. It was the final day of Trump\u2019s UK visit, which he called an \u201cexquisite honour.\u201d<\/p>\n

Points of Agreement and Disagreement<\/h2>\n

The two leaders presented a united front on economic cooperation. The tech investment deal was described as a milestone that will create thousands of jobs. Officials expect billions in investment in artificial intelligence, quantum computing, and clean energy.<\/p>\n

But Trump also made clear his disagreement with Starmer on one major foreign policy issue. He said he opposed the UK\u2019s recognition of Palestine as a state. \u201cIt\u2019s one of our few disagreements,\u201d Trump noted.<\/p>\n

Starmer pushed back slightly, saying he and Trump \u201cabsolutely agree\u201d on the need for a peace roadmap in Gaza. He added the current situation there is intolerable and requires urgent action.<\/p>\n

Wider Impact of the Meeting<\/h2>\n

The press conference was watched closely for signs of tension. Both leaders avoided being drawn into controversies, including questions about ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Instead, they emphasized shared goals on trade, jobs, and security.<\/p>\n

For Starmer, the meeting underscored Britain\u2019s efforts to balance domestic priorities with strong ties to Washington. For Trump, it was a chance to show alignment with the UK while stressing his trademark hard line on immigration.<\/p>\n

The immigration debate remains at the center of UK politics. Trump\u2019s call to \u201cuse military if needed\u201d added new weight to the discussion. Both leaders now face pressure to show their approaches can deliver results.<\/p>\n
