Donald Trump was sworn in Friday as the 45th president of the United States, and his inauguration has drawn a mammoth crowd and as per official estimates 1.5 millions natives were present but US media speak of meagre number..
Many countries expressed hope for cooperative relations with the new U.S. administration, but what worries about Trump’s “America first” policy dominate responses from officials, experts and the public.
Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to meet Trump to congratulate him on taking office, but preparations for the possible meeting may take months, Russian media quoted Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov as saying. But tinkles meet is soon as possible as per Russian officials.
Prime Minister Theresa May will meet US President Donald Trump in Washington DC on Friday. The White House said Mrs May will be the first foreign leader to meet the new president after his inauguration. A post-Brexit free trade deal is thought likely to be high on her agenda as she travels to the US for talks.
Confirmation of the meeting came as hundreds of thousands of people around the world joined women’s marches to protest Mr Trump’s presidency. Mr Trump’s press secretary Sean Spicer gave details of Mrs May’s visit in his first briefing to journalists at the White House yesterday.
Earlier, while visiting the CIA’s headquarters, President Trump said the Prime Minister is coming over to the country very shortly. He said Nato, the European Union, defence and Russia are all likely to be discussed in the meeting.

US President Donald Trump has said, the United States has no choice but to get rid of ISIS and radical Islamic terrorism. He told members of the CIA community at its headquarters in Langley that US has been fighting these wars for longer than any wars it has ever fought.
In his maiden address to the CIA officials, Mr Trump said, ISIS has to be eradicated just off the face of the Earth. Referring to CIA, the president said, he believes that this group is going to be one of the most important groups in the US towards making the country safe, towards making it winners again, toward ending all of the problems. Mr Trump’s nominee for CIA Director Mike Pompeo has not been confirmed by the Senate yet.
