Trump reacts to Prince Harry urgent appeal with sarcastic message

Prince Harry received a clear message from US President Donald Trump after the former working royal made an urgent appeal.

For the unversed, the Duke of Sussex attended a security conference in Kyiv, Ukraine, on April 23.

His visit was shocking for many as the conflict once again intensified in Ukraine.

In his powerful address to attendees at the security forum, Harry lauded the efforts of Ukrainians for being supportive of one another and said that the world sees them.

But that was not the highlight of his speech. King Charles' son made a plea to world leaders, including Putin and Trump, in times of crisis.

He told the Russian President that war is not beneficial for anyone, mentioning that humans pay the highest cost.

Then, he made a plea to Trump to intervene and play his important role in "global security and strategic stability."

Now, President Trump responded to Harry's statement, but it sounds quite sarcastic.

During White House briefing, the US political figure asked about his take on Harry's comments.

He said, "How's he doing? How's his wife? Please give her my regards."

"I know one thing, Prince Harry is not speaking for the UK, that’s for sure. I think I am speaking for the UK more than Prince Harry. But I appreciate his advice very much," Trump seemingly paid no heed to the Duke's plea. 

It is important to note that Harry and Trump's latest exchange took place before King Charles much-awaited US trip.
