Donald Trump managed to blame the Chinese president for Kim Jong Un’s announcement that North Korea won’t be the next Libya at the very same time that the Chinese delegation is visiting to discuss trade issues.
During one of the ubiquitous „pool sprays“ put on by the White House press office to strut Donald Trump in front of the cameras and let him serve as his own press secretary, he managed to blame the Chinese president for Kim Jong Un’s announcement that North Korea won’t be the next Libya. He did this in front of the Secretary General of NATO, which was also special.
Trump did his best to get John Bolton out of a bind after his comments about how proud he was of the denuclearization of Libya, which ultimately led to the downfall of Qaddafi.
„China’s never had this [trade] problem with us. Trump declared, referring to the fact that he has slapped a lot of tariffs on China, causing them to turn to Russia for basics, like soybeans .
„It could very well be that [Xi] is influencing Kim Jong-Un,“ he continued, shamelessly hanging John Bolton’s gaffe on the Chinese president.
