"Christian Turner expressed his disdain for the term 'special relationship,' calling it quite nostalgic and backwards-looking, suggesting that it carries a lot of baggage. He stated that there is probably one country that has a special relationship with the United States, and that is probably Israel, indicating a shift in the dynamics of U.S.-U.K. relations."
"Turner highlighted the extraordinary fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files, noting that it has led to significant consequences for British officials, including a senior royal family member and a British ambassador, while questioning the lack of accountability in the U.S. He asked, 'How many Americans have been called to testify before Congress?'"
Christian Turner, Britain's new ambassador to Washington, criticized the notion of a special relationship between the U.K. and U.S., labeling it as nostalgic and backwards-looking. He suggested that Israel now holds that designation. Turner also commented on the fallout from the Jeffrey Epstein files, noting the lack of accountability in the U.S. compared to the consequences faced by British officials.
