Harry Dunn's parents and their respective partners have travelled to Washington
President Trump has told the family of Harry Dunn that their case is compelling, but the American driver involved in Harry's fatal crash will remain in the US.
Following the meeting at the White House Harry's mum and dad told Sky News that the president had been respectful and said that their case was compelling and he would look at it again.
However he reiterated that the American position was unchanged and the American woman involved in Harry's fatal accident, Anne Sacoolas, would be staying in the US.
Mrs Sacoolas was also at the White House and offered to meet Harry's parents, but the offer was declined.
