US Visit: Truss To Meet Biden As She Attempts To Repair Ties Strained Over Brexit Row

Relations between the two leaders are already strained by her threats as foreign secretary to rip up the post-Brexit trading arrangements in Northern Ireland.

Biden has expressed concerns that peace in the province should not be undermined by the Brexit row, and has been reluctant to strike a free trade deal with the UK as a result.

However, the pair are likely to find common ground on pursuing a tough line on Russia over its invasion of Ukraine, as well as sharing a hawkish approach to China.

Truss will use her visit to the UN general assembly in New York to underline Britain's commitment to Ukraine with a pledge of at least £2.3bn in military aid next year.

In recent days, Ukraine has made major military gains against Russia, liberating territory in the east.
