UK: UK Prime Minister Liz Truss said on Tuesday that a trade deal with the United States is not expected in the coming years.

"There are currently no talks with the US, and I don't expect them to start in the short to medium term," Truss told reporters upon his arrival in the US, according to Sky News.

According to the report, the prime minister is currently focusing on the issue of cooperation with international allies to resolve the conflict in Ukraine and plans to put it on the agenda of the UN General Assembly in the coming days.

Also, the truce intends to expand cooperation with eastern countries, especially India. According to Sky News, former Prime Minister Boris Johnson had promised New Delhi that a trade deal would be signed by the end of the year.

According to the report, Truss also intends to reach an agreement with the Gulf Cooperation Council, which includes Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates.

The truss is also working on the UK's membership in one of the world's largest trading blocs, the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for the Trans-Pacific Partnership, which includes Australia, Canada and Japan.

Truss arrived in the United States to attend the general debate of the 77th session of the United Nations General Assembly. The High Level Week of the UNGA session will take place in New York from September 20 to 26.

US President Joe Biden, French President Emmanuel Macron, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi and Brazilian President Jair Bolsonaro are among those attending. China will be represented by a Deputy Prime Minister.

The Russian delegation will be led by Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov, who will address the General Assembly on 24 September.
