BIARRITZ, France, Aug 25, 2019 (BSS/AFP) – British Prime Minister Boris
Johnson on Sunday held his first face-to-face talks with Donald Trump since
taking office, with the US President backing him as the “right man” to
deliver Brexit for Britain.

hosted by France in Biarritz. Asked what his advice was for Brexit, Trump
replied: “He (Johnson) needs no advice, he is the right man for the job.”
