WASHINGTON (AP) — King Charles III is set to address the U.S. Congress, becoming the first British monarch to do so since Queen Elizabeth II in 1991. Tuesday’s speech is expected to highlight the strong bond between the United Kingdom and the United States, focusing on shared history and democratic values. The visit marks the 250th anniversary of U.S. independence. Charles, accompanied by Queen Camilla, will meet President Donald Trump at the White House. Despite recent tensions between Trump and British Prime Minister Keir Starmer, the meeting is expected to be cordial. Charles and Camilla arrived in Washington on Monday.
