President Donald Trump said on Monday he had a "very good conversation" with new British Prime Minister Andy Burnham, adding he would be meeting him "in the not too distant future."

Burnham became Britain's seventh prime minister in a decade on ​Monday, pledging to reshape its politics to deliver a new economic model and revive a nation "fed ⁠up" with a revolving door of leaders.

"We discussed North Sea ​Oil, Trade, the Military Alliance, Demining of the Hormuz Strait, ⁠and many other topics. The call was interesting, and went very well," Trump said in a post on Truth Social.

"We will be meeting in the not too distant future for topics of mutual ​interest," Trump said without noting a date.

Trump was critical of former British Prime Minister Keir Starmer over the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran, immigration, energy, and tech regulation.

Burnham's office said he assured Trump that ⁠London would be committed to defense and security and ⁠would support the safe reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, which has ⁠been ⁠effectively blocked since the start of the war, causing energy prices to rise.

Relations between Trump and Starmer cooled when Britain initially rejected a U.S. request to use British bases for strikes on Iran. Starmer later authorized ‌U.S. use ​of the bases.

Late last month, Trump said he knew little about Burnham, describing him as "extremely liberal" and someone who ​probably would not open the North Sea to more oil drilling.
