Donald Trump apparently wants to revive his “penalty friendship” with North Korean ruler Kim Jong and his first term. “I will contact you again,” Trump said in a TV interview on Thursday evening.
During his first term, Trump had attempted a deal with Kim, but there was no breakthrough at two summits. Trump wanted Kim to give up his nuclear weapons through economic concessions. At that time, the American head of state promised North Korea a “tremendous future”. He flattered his “friend” Kim again and again and raved about the letters she wrote to each other.
North Korea’s alliance with Russia
The highly equipped dictatorship also threatens the US with its missiles. In the previous year, North Korea and Russia entered into a defense alliance. Pyongyang initially provided the aggressor ammunition. For several months now, North Korean soldiers have been fighting on the Russian side in the Ukraine war, which the United States warned. There are fears that hostility could also spread to East Asia. Washington is particularly interested in this region.
Trump also reported on his recent conversation with Chinese ruler Xi Jinping. This was “good”. He wanted to avoid using tariffs in conflict with China, the US president said. Trump confirmed whether he could reach a deal with China.
Trump advertises to companies for his country in Davos speech
Hours earlier, the new powerful man in the White House gave a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos – he was engaged by video. There he pointed out the “unfair” economic relations with China and the EU and threatened to impose tariffs again. At the same time, he campaigned for companies to invest and produce in the United States. “Under the Trump administration, there will be no better place in the world to create jobs, build factories or grow a business,” the 78-year-old said.
