The White House confirmed that US President Donald Trump will not visit the UK until next year, the Guardian reported.
In a report, the newspaper said that the US president was invited by UK Prime Minister Theresa May to visit Britain a week after his inauguration, when May became the first foreign leader to visit at the White House.
The Guardian quoted White House Press Secretary, Sarah Sanders saying on Friday that it has not been determined whether Trump would make a state visit or a working visit to Britain. The latter would be without royal pageantry or a stopover with the Queen.
In June it emerged that Trump told May he did not want to go ahead with a state visit until the British public supported his visit, the report read.
In July, the Guardian reported that the UK government had conceded that the visit would not take place until 2018, amid claims that Trump had been scared off by the threat of protests, the report added.
