WASHINGTON (AP) โ A White House official says President Donald Trump and Prime Minister Theresa May of the U.K. spoke Tuesday morning for the first time since she condemned the American leaderโs Twitter habits.
A British government spokesperson confirms the call.
Trumpโs sharing of unverified videos distributed by a far-right group Britain First claiming to depict violence perpetrated by Muslim immigrants in Europe sparked a row in the special relationship between the trans-Atlantic powers. A spokesman for May last month rebuked Trump, saying he was โwrongโ to have shared the videos, prompting Trump to lash back at the prime minister.
A White House official, who was not authorized to discuss the call on the record, says said the tweets did not come up during their call.
