UK’s new foreign minister ignores questions about calling Trump ‘racist’

Ed Miliband, the U.K.'s new Foreign Secretary, dodged questions about his past derogatory comments on President Trump, including calling him a "racist, misogynistic self-confessed groper." This came ahead of a meeting with U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio in Washington, highlighting a potential shift in the UK's diplomatic approach towards the Trump administration. Such comments from a high-ranking official could have significant implications for transatlantic relations, especially with Trump's controversial policies and rhetoric. Miliband's silence on the matter suggests a possible effort to foster better diplomatic ties with the U.S. administration.
