Trump questioned the loyalty of US allies

US President Donald Trump has said that not all countries officially considered Washington's allies are actually its true partners. He said this on November 10 in an interview with Fox News channel, published on the YouTube channel.

According to the American leader, a number of states benefit greatly from cooperation with the United States.

"Many of our allies are not our friends. Our allies have benefited more from trade with us than China," Trump stressed.

However, the parties did not conclude a general deal.

Earlier in the day, Trump said that China is aware of the US military might and avoids direct confrontation. He noted that cooperation with Beijing is possible only "from a position of strength," emphasizing the importance of economic measures and the modernization of the American armed forces.
