US President Donald Trump has rebuked British Prime Minister Keir Starmer after London considered sending two aircraft carriers to West Asia amid the Iran conflict.
Trump said he didn't need British help to win the war with Iran and that the UK's support was too little, too late.
The Republican leader took to Truth Social to express his discontent, stating that the UK's decision to send aircraft carriers was 'OK' but that they didn't need their help.
The move comes after Trump repeatedly criticized Starmer, suggesting that he had 'ruined' the historically close relationship between the two countries.
Starmer defended his decision not to allow US forces to use British bases for initial strikes on Iran, citing concerns over the legality and planning of the operation.
The UK's defence ministry has confirmed that it is preparing the Prince of Wales aircraft carrier for possible deployment, but no final decision has been made.
