  2. Will the UK censor Truth Social?published at 14:29 British Summer Time 28 July

    A reporter asks Trump a question about new measures in the UK that put restrictions on social media sites to protect children, and if they will affect the US president's social media site Truth Social.

    "I don't think he's going to censor my site because I say only good things," Trump says, adding, jokingly to Starmer, "Will you please uncensor my site?"

    Starmer interjects, saying "no one is getting censored", and that the new measures in place are simply to protect children from certain social media sites.

  3. Trump says talks with Putin have failed 'on too many occasions'published at 14:27 British Summer Time 28 July

    Back to the topic of Russia's war in Ukraine, one journalist tells Trump they can sense his frustration with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

    The journalist asks if Putin has been lying to Trump about his intentions in Ukraine.

    Trump says he doesn't want to use the word lying, but he says it has seemed on three occasions that they would get a ceasefire deal.

    "All of a sudden missiles are flying into Kyiv... what's that all about?" he says.

    "This has happened on too many occasions and I don't like it."

    Asked about pharmaceutical tariffs, Trump says he has a "very big plan on pharmaceuticals" and "we want to bring them back to America - where they should be".

    Trump says they learnt a hard lesson during the Covid-19 pandemic, as the US was getting pharmaceuticals from other countries.

    He adds that the UK has a good pharmaceutical business and the US will be dealing with the UK on this.

  5. 'Israel has a lot of responsibility' in limiting aid - Trumppublished at 14:21 British Summer Time 28 July

    A journalist takes the discussion back to Gaza and asks Trump about his comments on Hamas stealing food and aid - asking what responsibility Israel has in limiting aid to the region.

    Trump says Israel has a "lot of responsibility" but adds they are "hampered" by the fact there are 20 hostages still being held by Hamas.

    He adds the people of Israel are "very concerned" by the hostages.

    Starmer adds at this point that we "need to get the hostages out" - calling that the starting point.

    The UK prime minister adds that the situation on the ground in Gaza is "absolutely intolerable" and that humanitarian aid needs to get in "at speed and at volume".

  6. Will there be a 'better deal' done for Scotland?published at 14:19 British Summer Time 28 July

    Trump speaks a bit about his family, telling reporters that his mother was born in Scotland and had great love for the region and for the Queen.

    He says she and his sisters visited frequently. "They loved this part of the world," he says.

    This prompted a question from a reporter: Will there be a better deal to be done for Scotland - specifically on whisky?

    Trump says "a lot" of the trade deal done between the US and UK will go to Scotland, with Starmer adding it will be a great deal for all of the United Kingdom.

    He says that they have managed to get a "tremendous" amount of hostages out, but it's happened in "drips and drabs".

    He says that now that Hamas has a few hostages left, it will be difficult to make a deal, as the group uses them as a "shield".

    "When they give them up, they no longer have a shield," he says.

  15. What was Trump's 50-day deadline for Putin?published at 13:38 British Summer Time 28 July

    On 14 July, during an Oval Office meeting with Nato chief Mark Rutte, Trump promised severe tariffs on Russia's trading partners if Putin didn't reach a deal with Ukraine.

    The US president said he would enforce 100% secondary tariffs if there was no deal in 50 days.

    This means any country that continues to trade with Russia would face a big tax to sell their products to the US, business reporter Dearbail Jordan explained.

    Although Russia already faces widespread sanctions in the west, it still trades with a host of countries, including India and China. You can watch Trump's comments from 14 July below.

    A journalist shifts the conversation to ask about Russia's war in Ukraine, to which Trump says he and Russian President Vladimir Putin have been close to reaching a ceasefire deal five times.

    "I've spoken to President Putin a lot, I've gotten along with him very well," he says, but adds that Putin "goes out and starts launching rockets into some city, like Kyiv, and kills a lot of people in a nursing home or whatever, you have bodies lying all over the street".

    Trump says he is "very disappointed in Putin", adding that he may reduce the 50 days he's given the Russian president to agree to a ceasefire deal.

    "I'm going to reduce that 50 days that I gave him to a lesser number, because I think I already know the answer what's going to happen," he says.

  17. Trump says Hamas keeping hostages as 'shields'published at 13:05 British Summer Time 28 July

    Trump thanks Starmer for helping the US in the release of hostages being held in Gaza, but Trump adds that Hamas won't release the final 20 hostages - "that's like their shield".

    The US president tells reporters "the fight will have to be a little bit different" between Gaza and Israel going forwards.

    He says he has told Israel's prime minister that he will have to approach the conflict in "a different way".

    "A ceasefire is possible," Trump says, and claims there would be "six major wars going on" if he wasn't around.

    Trump is asked if he agrees with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's assessment that there is no starvation in Gaza.

    "I mean based on television, I would say not particularly because those children look very hungry," he says.

    Starmer then interrupts the US president: "It's a humanitarian crisis. It's an absolute catastrophe. I think people in Britain are revolted in seeing what they're seeing on their screens."

    The prime minister says they need to get a ceasefire and thanks the US president for leading on that. Starmer adds that they are working with Jordan to get direct aid drops into Gaza.

    Trump then talks about the US' immigration policy and says no-one has come into the country illegally in the last month.

    "If you're stopping immigration and stopping the wrong people, my hats are off to you," Trump says.

    Trump says even though he knows "nothing about the boats", he praises Starmer's strong stance against illegal immigration.
