British Prime Minister Theresa May meets with U.S. President Donald Trump Friday at the White House where the two world leaders will hold a joint news conference.

She will be the first foreign leader to meet with Trump in Washington since he took office.

On Thursday, May spoke to a gathering of U.S. Republican leaders in Philadelphia where she said the days of the U.S. and Britain intervening in other nations to remake them in their image are over.

May said it is in British and American interests to defend their values, but not go back to what she called the "failed policies of the past."

May also called for reform in such multinational institutions as the U.N. and NATO "to make them more relevant and purposeful." She said their members have to stop leaning on the United States.

英国首相特雷莎·梅星期五将在白宫会晤美国总统川普，这两位领导人还将举行联合记者招待会。

特雷莎·梅是川普上任后第一位到访的外国元首。

特雷莎·梅星期四在费城向聚集在那里开会的共和党人发表演讲，她说美国与英国干预别国，按照自己的模式改造其它国家的日子应该一去不复返了。

她说，美国和英国需要维护自己的价值，不能回到她所说的“过去失败的政策。”

特雷莎·梅还呼吁改革联合国和北约等多国机构，使他们更符合时代需要和目的明确。她还呼吁这些机构的成员国不要依赖美国。
