The British prime minister's office says Theresa May and President-elect Donald Trump have agreed that their national security advisers should meet before the end of the year.
May's 10 Downing Street office says the British leader called Trump on Tuesday and that the pair "agreed that their teams should continue to build close relationships" through the transition period and that their national security advisers should meet in the US before Christmas.
May's contact with Trump have been overshadowed by the president-elect's warm relationship with Nigel Farage, former leader of the right-wing UK Independence Party.
Trump suggested last week that Farage would make a good British ambassador to the US, prompting May's office to retort that the post was not vacant.
