Podcasts about State visit

The Resolute Desk is arguably the most famous desk in the world. It is certainly the most iconic of the six desks that have been used by sitting presidents in the Oval Office. Stewart McLaurin, President of the White House Historical Association, traveled to England in order to learn more about the history of the desk which was gifted in 1880 to President Rutherford B. Hayes from Queen Victoria of the United Kingdom as a sign of goodwill between the two nations. Though it was used throughout the White House since President Hayes, the desk was first used in the Oval Office by President John F. Kennedy. It has also been used by Presidents Carter, Reagan, and every president since George W. Bush. The episode begins at The Historic Dockyard Chatham where the British ship HMS Resolute was docked before it was decommissioned, broken apart, and its timbers turned into various items - including a desk for the U.S. President. Almost 30 years earlier, the HMS Resolute had been part of an Arctic rescue expedition in search of a British explorer who went missing on the hunt for the Northwest Passage to Asia. The rescue expedition got stuck in the ice, and after a few seasons, the crew abandoned the ships. It was an American vessel that eventually found the Resolute which had broken free of the ice. The U.S. Congress appropriated the funds to refit the ship and return it to England's Queen Victoria.  Stewart and Paul Barnard, Deputy Chief Executive at The Historic Dockyard Chatham, tour the dockyard and climb aboard a Victorian naval sloop called the HMS Gannet, a similar ship that was introduced into service around the time the Resolute was decommissioned. As we'll learn, the Gannet also has its own tie-in to White House history. Then they visit the space that was once the shop where the Resolute Desk was built. Stewart and Paul are joined by Paul Wright, Interpretation Officer at The Historic Dockyard Chatham, who talks about the skills and craftsmanship of the people who once worked in the yard.  Then Stewart heads to the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London and meets with Senior Curator, Dr. Claire Warrior, for a special look at several items not on public display, including an actual piece of wood from the HMS Resolute, as well as proposed designs for the famous desk. During his State Visit in April 2026, King Charles III gifted President Donald Trump a framed, high-quality reproduction of these same plans.  Join us for this fascinating behind-the-scenes look at the most recognizable desk in the world.

Donald Trump spent years portraying China as America's greatest enemy, yet during his Beijing summit with Xi Jinping he appeared far more comfortable admiring authoritarian pageantry than defending democratic values. The visit exposed a deeper contradiction at the heart of Trump's politics: his hostility toward China has never really been about authoritarianism, but about competition with a system of centralized power he openly envies. Independent media has never been more important.

Did the King perform a diplomatic masterclass or could it come back to bite him? This week, Chris and Lizzie join Charlene from Washington DC where they have been covering King Charles's state visit to America, to mark 250 years of US independence. The royal team travelled straight from Ukraine, where they had been exclusively filming with Prince Harry. After landing in Washington DC, they have covered Charles and Camilla's arrival, the White House reception, the state dinner and the King's iconic speech to Congress. So did Charles overstep the mark with his references to Ukraine, the Magna Carta, the Middle East war and NATO? Or did he successfully navigate one of the biggest challenges of his reign so far and single-handedly save the UK-US 'special relationship'? Plus, the team recount travelling to New York, where the royals took part in a moment of reflection almost 25 years since the 9/11 terror attacks. And in a touching moment, Chris and Lizzie explain why they feel so grateful to have witnessed these historic events.

King Charles and Queen Camilla are on their four-day state visit to the United States. Today King Charles will address the US Congress. But at the same time, survivors of the late paedophile Jeffrey Epstein and the family of one of his most prominent victims, Virginia Giuffre, have urged the King to meet them during his state visit.

An amendment to the Crime and Policing Bill will remove criminal liability for women who end their own pregnancies.

We hear from Labour MP Tonia Antoniazzi and historian Dr Jessica Cox from Brunel University. Millions of Indians have been voting in elections across five states in a set of contests. We'll look at why the number of female voters in India has significantly increased in the last few decades - outnumbering male voters in the last general election - and how the female vote is changing politics in India.Single-use plastic waste was found on 97% of the beaches surveyed by the Marine Conservation Society in the UK and Channel Islands last year.

Live from Washington, D.C.: King Charles arrives for his historic state visit

King Charles and Queen Camilla have landed in the US for their state visit on the back of the shooting outside the White House Correspondents' Dinner. The 31-year-old suspect, California teacher Cole Allen, is currently appearing in court over the shooting and been charged with attempted assassination of the president. The royals are visiting the US for four-days with a bilateral meeting with the President planned. Royal Commentator Robert Jobson told Mike Hosking it's hoped Donald Trump and the King can try smooth UK-US relations. He says it helps Trump has respect for the royals, because his own mother was Scottish. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The King and Queen will meet with US President Donald Trump in person five times over four days as they try to patch up the strained relations between the US and UK amid the conflict in Iran.And everyone involved in the visit admits it is the most risky diplomatic trip of King Charles' reign so far.Trump has said Starmer is "no Winston Churchill", he picked on his voice, shared social media posts mocking his British counterpart and called Royal Navy warships "toys" compared to American ones.But the prime minister put his faith in the so-called 'soft-power' of the monarchy, which he said, "is often able to reach through the decades on a situation like this".Only stills photographers have been invited into the Oval Office when the King meets the President, which limits the chance of Donald Trump saying something awkward in front of TV cameras.But no one can ever be confident that Trump will stick to his script at a state dinner in Washington.What the King and Queen will not be able to do on the trip is see those Epstein survivors who have written to the palace asking for a meeting.There is currently a criminal investigation in the UK into the King's younger brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, for the offence of misconduct in public office.Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing, but he was stripped of his prince title, his dukedom and his home in Windsor.Other police assessments are going on into claims of trafficking young women into the UK for sex.The former Prince Andrew has consistently denied any wrongdoing, but he was stripped of his prince title, his dukedom and his home in Windsor over what the palace called his "errors of judgement".A Buckingham Palace source said: "We fully understand and appreciate the survivors' position, but can only reiterate that our position is clear that anything that could potentially impact on ongoing police inquiries and assessments and any potential criminal investigation that could result from that would be to the detriment of the survivors themselves in their pursuit of justice." However small the risk, it is one palace officials are not prepared to take.However small the risk, it is one palace officials are not prepared to take.
