Britain says US wrong to separate migrant kids
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleBritish Prime Minister Theresa May says the United States is wrong to separate migrant children from their parents, but has rejected calls to cancel President Donald Trump’s visit to Britain next month.
May says that images of children in cages were “deeply disturbing. This is wrong. This is not something that we agree with.”
Opposition lawmakers rebuked May for not criticizing the Trump administration in stronger terms.
Trump is due to meet May and Queen Elizabeth II during a visit to Britain on July 13.
May says Britain and the United States has a “special, long and enduring relationship,” and she has “a range of issues” to discuss with Trump.
She says the close UK-US bond meant “when we disagree with what they are doing, we say so.”
