Many political commentators had been waiting for this moment because of the clear ideological differences between the two leaders, which raised the question of if they’d ever be able to create a positive and beneficial relationship. It had the potential to contrast the Prime Minister’s relationship with President Barack Obama, which has continuously been seen in a positive light.
