No extension to the duties, which will start as announced on April 2, no dismissal for the “chat gate” case and a message to Greenland which “will be 100% ours”, without excluding the use of force.
Donald Trump gives an interview across the NBC News and first of all deny the rumors circulated with insistence in Washington in the last few days, which gave for imminent a series of measures by Trump himself against Michael Waltz, the national security councilor who added a journalist to the chat in which the leaders of American security announced an imminent attack on the Houti in Yemen. “They are fake news,” says Trump at the NBC. “I don’t borrow anyone.” When asked if he still has confidence in Waltz and in the defense secretary Pete Hegseth, Trump replied: “Yes”.
The American president then returns to his decision to impose duties at 25% also on the car sector: the risk that the prices of foreign cars increase “I cannot care less”, he says. «If you produce your car in the United States, you will earn a lot of money. If you don’t do it, you will probably have to come to the United States, because if you produce your car in the United States, there are no duties »it is the message that the head of the White House launches to the CEO of the car industry. When asked if he asked the managers of the sector not to increase prices as reported by the Wall Street Journal, Trump added: «No, I never said it. It could not matter to me less if prices increase, because people will start buying cars produced in America ».
Trump has also liquidated the concerns that his program is causing volatility to Wall Street or is reducing the trust of consumers, underlining that the polls show that the share of Americans who believe that the country is on the right path is at record levels. “What I see is the right path.”
Finally Trump sends a poorly reassuring message to Greenland: «We will get Greenland. Yes, 100%, “said the US President. There is a “good possibility that we could do it without resorting to military force”, but “I do not exclude anything from the table”, he concludes.
