Former U.S. President Donald Trump has not yet spoken with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer following the growing controversy surrounding the BBC, despite widespread speculation of diplomatic communication between both sides.
According to sources close to the matter, Trump has “not made any direct contact” with Starmer regarding the dispute, which has sparked public debate in both the United States and the United Kingdom. The BBC row—stemming from recent criticisms, political tensions, and calls for reforms—continues to dominate headlines, but officials confirm no conversation has taken place between the former U.S. leader and the UK Prime Minister.
Political analysts note that while Trump has commented publicly on various international issues, there has been no formal outreach to Downing Street specifically concerning the BBC controversy.
The UK government has also declined to comment on whether any communication is expected, maintaining that Starmer remains focused on domestic governance and media transparency reforms.
