BBC在线收听下载:美国总统特朗普访问英国
BBC News with Sue Montgomery.
At the start of the US President's state visit to Britain, a row has erupted between Donald Trump and the mayor of London. On the flight over, President Trump called Sadiq Khan a stone cold loser. Mr. Trump is now at Buckingham Palace, where he was greeted by Queen Elizabeth and will attend a lunch. Despite the earlier row, our royal correspondent Jonny Dymond says he still expects the state visit to go well.
There are almost two visits going on at the same time. There is the formal side of this visit, the royal side of this visit, which is going to, I think very, very smoothly. We saw with the state visit to Japan, President Trump is perfectly able to stay on the script. We then got the political side of the visit, which we've seen in this string of interviews that he's given to various newspapers over the last few days. And then in the tweets which have been coming out, which are extraordinary and perhaps we become inured to it a little bit. But actually they are extraordinary interventions in domestic politics in the country that he's visiting. Jonny Dymond reporting.

North Macedonia will become NATO's thirtieth member once all the others have ratified the accession protocol signed in February.

They've been searching for eight climbers who were meant to return to base camp on Friday. Authorities are now trying to assess how to retrieve the bodies from such treacherous terrain where helicopters cannot land. Bad weather has also been affecting operations. Nanda Devi is considered one of the toughest mountains in the world to climb.
