King Charles addresses Congress on global collaboration

King Charles III delivered a historic address to the United States Congress, becoming the first king to speak in the chamber and receiving 12 standing ovations during the 30-minute speech. The address emphasised collaboration between nations, environmental protection, and trade opportunities, while specifically acknowledging the AUKUS submarine partnership between the US, UK, and Australia. The speech drew parallels to Queen Elizabeth II's 1991 Congressional address and contrasted with recent American isolationist rhetoric, focusing instead on the importance of international cooperation, NATO, and shared history between allied nations.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
