Britain's King Charles and Queen Camilla are beginning a state visit to the US (on Monday) amid strained ties between London and Washington.
The trip is going ahead 'as planned', according to Buckingham Palace, despite security concerns raised by a shooting in Washington at the weekend.
US President Donald Trump has said the visit may help repair a UK-US relationship that he feels has been damaged by Britain's response to the Iran conflict.
Former UK Ambassador to the United Nations Sir Mark Lyall Grant says the trip was never likely to be cancelled.
