Trump said he hoped an agreement that was mutually beneficial for the US and China could be reached
United States President Donald Trump brought his nationalistic rhetoric to the United Nations, declaring in his address to world leaders that the future does not belong to globalists but patriots. “Wise leaders always put the good of their own people and their own country first,” Trump said at the 74th General Assembly of the UN in New York on Tuesday, Efe news reported.
“The future does not belong to globalists, the future belongs to patriots, the future belongs to sovereign and independent nations, who protect their citizens, respect their neighbours, and honour the differences that make each country special and unique.”
The president spoke about his country’s trade relations with China and said the US had “lost 60,000 factories after China entered the WTO”. He said other countries were also affected and that the WTO needed “drastic change”. Donald Trump added: “To confront these unfair practices, I placed massive tariffs on more than $500 billion worth of Chinese-made goods.”
He said supply chains were now returning to America and other countries as a result of his administration’s measures. Trump said he hoped an agreement that was mutually beneficial for the US and China could be reached, but added: “I will not accept a bad deal for the American people.” “We are all counting on President Xi as a great leader,” the president said. “The United States does not seek conflict with any other nation, we desire peace, cooperation and mutual gain with all.”
