Pat McFadden, UK work and pensions secretary, said Britain is not obliged to support every demand from President Trump, describing him as "very transactional" after Trump criticized the UK for not sending ships to the strait of Hormuz and threatened NATO consequences. McFadden told Sky News the UK-US relationship is deep and enduring, though the countries will not always agree on every intervention, while the UK plans to send minesweeping drones instead of naval vessels.
