America's special relationship 'probably Israel', says UK ambassador to US
UK Ambassador to the US Sir Christian Turner stated in private remarks that Israel is probably the only country with a 'special relationship' with the United States, advising the UK government to reassess its transatlantic ties rather than rely on nostalgic rhetoric. The comments, leaked during King Charles III's state visit, were disavowed by the UK Foreign Office as not reflecting official policy.
