Washington: US President Donald Trump has once again stunned the world with his bold style. In an exclusive interview with The New York Times, Trump made it clear that he believes in making decisions based on his own morality and thinking rather than international laws.
When asked about the limits of America’s global power, Trump stated:
“Only my own morality and my own mind can stop me. I don’t need international law. I don’t want to harm people, but my decisions will be my own.”
Following US actions in Venezuela, questions are arising about whether America might give China a free hand on Taiwan.
On relations with Chinese President Xi Jinping, Trump said Xi won’t attack Taiwan while he’s in office.
Trump’s stance: He said it would sadden him if China acted, but he didn’t reiterate any direct commitment to Taiwan’s defense. He hinted that the Taiwan issue could depend on China’s own decisions.
Trump reiterated his desire to acquire Greenland, stating that “ownership” is more important than any treaty or lease.
Psychological victory: Trump said US control over Greenland is essential for a psychological win.
NATO: Speaking about European countries, he affirmed his loyalty to Europe but wants them to spend more on their own defense. He claimed that without him as president, Russia would have already taken all of Ukraine by now.
Key Points:
Venezuela vs. Taiwan: US interest in Venezuela could pose a risk to Taiwan.
International Law: Trump has essentially rejected adherence to international treaties.
Greenland: America is serious about linking Greenland to itself, a point also confirmed by Vice President JD Vance.
