Prince Charles spent 75 minutes longer than scheduled trying
to convince Donald Trump of the dangers of global heating, but the president
still insisted the US was “clean” and blamed other nations for the crisis.
Trump told ITV’s Good Morning Britain he had been due to
meet the Prince of Wales for 15 minutes during his state visit, but the
discussion went on for 90 minutes – during which the prince did “most of the
talking”.
Trump said: “He is really into climate change and I think
that’s great. What he really wants and what he really feels warmly about is the
future. He wants to make sure future generations have climate that is good
climate, as opposed to a disaster, and I agree.”
But Trump said he pushed back at the suggestion the US
should do more.
He said: “I did say, ‘Well, the United States right now has
among the cleanest climates there are based on all statistics.’ And it’s even
getting better because I agree with that we want the best water, the cleanest
water. It’s crystal clean, has to be crystal clean clear.”
Trump added: “China, India, Russia, many other nations, they
have not very good air, not very good water, and the sense of pollution. If you
go to certain cities … you can’t even breathe, and now that air is going up.”

Does the US President
believe in climate change?
Trump says he discussed climate change with Prince Charles,
who he believes is 'a very good person' who 'wants to have a world that's good
for future generations'.

Asked by the interviewer Piers Morgan if he accepted the
science on climate change, Trump said: “I believe there’s a change in weather,
and I think it changes both ways. Don’t forget, it used to be called global
warming, that wasn’t working, then it was called climate change. Now it’s
actually called extreme weather, because with extreme weather you can’t miss.”
Morgan did not ask Trump about his decision to withdraw the US
from the Paris agreement on climate change.
During the interview, Trump’s third with Morgan since his
inauguration, the president said he had not called the Duchess of Sussex
“nasty” in an interview with the Sun ahead of his visit. But he added: “What
she said was nasty based on what they told me.”
Trump also appeared to backtrack on his earlier claim that
the NHS was “on the table” in a post-Brexit trade deal, telling Morgan he did
not see the cherished institution as “part of trade”.
“I don’t see it being on the table. Somebody asked me a
question today and I said everything’s up for negotiation because everything
is, but I don’t see it being on the table. That’s something I wouldn’t consider
part of trade, that’s not trade,” he said.
On Tuesday, the president sparked uproar after telling
reporters at a press conference alongside Theresa May that US companies should
have market access to every sector of the British economy as part of any
post-Brexit trade deal, including the NHS.
Trump’s statement drew immediate condemnation from several
Conservative leadership hopefuls as well as senior Labour politicians. There
are widespread concerns in the UK about US firms promising to provide
cost-cutting health services and wanting to sell food produced to lower
environmental and animal welfare standards, such as chlorine-washed chicken.
In his interview, Trump also softened his stance towards
Jeremy Corbyn after telling Tuesday’s press conference he had rejected a
request to meet the Labour leader, whom he called a “negative force”.
Trump said a future meeting with Corbyn was “always
possible”.
He said: “He wanted to meet. It was very tough to meet and
probably inappropriate to meet, to be honest with you.” And Trump said the
chance of Corbyn winning the next election was a “long shot”.
Trump also gave some further views on the Conservative
leadership candidates, repeating that he did not know Michael Gove despite the
fact Gove had interviewed Trump for the Times in 2017.
He said: “I don’t know him. I met him last night at the
dinner for the first time. I thought he was very good. You have a lot of good
people running. I was saying to the Queen last night, the choice of your next
prime minister is very important.”
He went on to lavish more praise on Boris Johnson, whom he
has previously described as a friend, and Jeremy Hunt, the foreign secretary,
who has reportedly become close to Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.
He said of Johnson: “I do think he’s a good person. I think
it’s going to be a very interesting … But they’re good people. They’re good
people, and Jeremy’s very good. I’ve gotten to know Jeremy.”
