Highlights: Trump's stance on key things after news conference with Theresa May

U.S. President Donald Trump held a news conference with outgoing Prime Minister Theresa May on Tuesday following a meeting at her Downing Street residence as part of his state visit to Britain. Below are some of his comments:

ON THE STATE BANQUET:

"We want to thank her majesty the Queen, who I had a lovely dinner with last night. A fantastic person, fantastic woman."

ON DEFENCE SPENDING:

"The United Kingdom is also a key partner in NATO. The prime minister and I agree that our NATO allies must increase their defence spending, we've both been working very hard to that end ... We expect a growing number of nations to meet the minimum 2% of GDP requirement. To address today's challenges, all members of the alliance must fulfil their obligations. They have no choice."

ON POST-BREXIT TRADE DEAL:

"As the UK makes preparations to exit the European Union, the United States is committed to a phenomenal trade deal between the US and the UK. There is tremendous potential in that trade deal, I say probably two and even three times of what we are doing right now."
