UK foreign secretary David Cameron is set to hold talks in Florida with Donald Trump, as London pushes to win support from the former president’s Republican allies in Congress for more Ukraine aid.
Cameron’s talks with Trump, the presidential candidate, comes before he is due in Washington for meetings starting on Tuesday with Biden administration officials and Republican lawmakers, including Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, a Trump ally.
Johnson has refused to use his powers to call a vote in the lower chamber of Congress on new security funds, including $60bn in aid for Ukraine, after pressure from Trump and lawmakers on the hard right flank of the Republican party.
