Donald Trump sparked controversy during the official meeting at the White House with King Charles III and Queen Camilla, after he touched the monarch on the shoulder, a gesture considered inappropriate according to British royal protocol. Although the moment seemed friendly, body language specialists argue that such gestures are carefully analyzed in a diplomatic context. King Charles did not visibly react, maintaining a calm and relaxed demeanor.
The atmosphere of the meeting was, however, quite relaxed, partly due to Melania Trump's intervention, whose gestures added a warmer note. This is not the first breach of this kind for Trump, who has previously violated royal protocol during visits to the UK.
The visit of the British sovereigns continues, with King Charles set to deliver a speech before the U.S. Congress.
