Leaked memo reveals Trump's plan to embarrass visiting King Charles

President Donald Trump wants to bring up a sore subject during a visit from an allied foreign leader, a leaked Pentagon memo reveals.

The Daily Beast reported on Thursday that Trump wants to question where King Charles should control the Falkland Islands, a British Overseas Territory near Argentina, during his upcoming visit on Monday.

Trump's plot is reportedly payback for British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's refusal to aid the U.S. blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The Falkland Islands could be a touchy topic as King Charles' younger brother, Prince Andrew, fought in the conflict as a helicopter pilot, the Daily Beast notes.

The memo also reveals that the U.S. could push to expel Spain from NATO for its reluctance to get involved in the war in Iran.

The leaked Pentagon memo and Trump's designs have already reached across the Atlantic, and the U.K. Liberal Democratic Party wants King Charles to cancel the visit, which was meant to mend strained relations between long-standing allies.

"Any move by the president to question our sovereignty in the Falklands should be met by robust denouncement," Sir Ed Davey, the party's leader, told The Daily Beast, adding that Trump is an "unreliable, damaging President" who "cannot keep insulting our country."
