    Default Boris Cancels Trip

    https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bus...c-2020-2%3famp

    UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson has canceled a trip to the US planned for next month after a furious phone call from President Donald Trump in which Trump slammed down the phone on the prime minister.
    Johnson had been due to visit Washington last month but repeatedly delayed the trip after a series of rows with the president over Iran, Huawei, and a rejected request by the prime minister to extradite the wife of a US diplomat.


    Johnson has now canceled his trip altogether, and is not planning on visiting the country until the G7 summit in June.
    A Downing Street source confirmed that the trip had been cancelled due to fears of further clashes with the president.

    That's hilarious. Each wants to be the top rooster. No wonder they're seen as Trump and Trumper.

    The call last month, which one source described to the Financial Times as "very difficult," came after Johnson defied Trump and allowed the Chinese telecom company Huawei the rights to develop the UK's 5G network.

    Johnson backed Huawei despite multiple threats by Trump and his allies that the US would withdraw security cooperation with the UK if the deal went ahead. The US fears that Huawei's technology could have backdoors for the Chinese government.
