Possibly because he doesn’t want to project an international image of an ex-colonial power deciding to ignore the ruling of an international court.

Maybe he has taken advice on the potential upsides and downsides of deciding to abide by the ruling and concluded the upsides win. The base there isn’t impacted so the downsides seem minimal.

Whether Trump’s rhetoric will force a climb down is another question.

I think that this stared under the Tories but got sidelined quite early on but Labour have resurrected it.

Dreadful if it goes ahead as well as costing us billions of pounds when we are bankrupt!
