London will be represented by the British ambassador.
British Prime Minister Keir Starmer will not attend Donald Trump's inauguration ceremony next week, the British Prime Minister's official spokesman has confirmed.
It is noted that Trump broke tradition by inviting some foreign leaders to an event on Monday, after which the Republican will return to the White House, but Starmer is not among them.
“It is customary in the US for foreign governments to be officially represented at presidential inaugurations by their ambassadors, and the British ambassador will represent the UK,” Starmer’s spokesman stressed.
“We look forward to collaborating and meeting at the earliest opportunity,” he added.
