US-UK promises to strengthen financial ties Blackstone plans to invest 100 billion pounds

Huobi HTX reported that US President Trump will arrive in the UK on Tuesday night for a three-day state visit. The United States and the United Kingdom have promised to strengthen financial ties, including exploring closer connections between the two countries' capital markets. British Prime Minister Stamer hopes to use Trump's visit to show Britain as a hot destination for foreign investment. Blackstone, a US private equity firm, has pledged to invest £100 billion in UK assets over the next decade. U.S. officials said the visit would reach at least $10 billion in investment agreements in the technology sector, a nuclear energy cooperation agreement, and explore "how to maintain deep ties between major financial centers in the future." However, Trump's visit may cause trouble for Starmer. The U.S. president is unpopular among British public opinion and his schedule has been carefully designed to avoid any public or political protests.
