Trump talks like a toddler. USA has no credibility.
This Kim fellow is wasting his time
USA provides the solution?uSA is the problem for itself and the rest of the world
Not with the Trump’s administration. Americans have shown the rest of the democratic worlds that they aren’t fit to be leading anymore. They can vote a Trump they can certainly vote for another one in the future, the US has lost all its credibility for leading humanity.
Useless USA are bullies, they only know how to bully!
Can't believe their lies. They bully you saying you bully them. They attack you saying you MIGHT attack them. They steal from you saying you are wanting to steal them first. Trust? it's down the drain. with their words and actions.
If Trump can arrest Maduro for Drug trafficking than he should also arrest Min Aung Hlaing for producing and trafficking the largest heroin and meth in the whole world which are destroying millions of families in ASEAN and around the world. Double Standard Hypocrite.
新加坡仍然沉醉在虚幻的“承诺”中,看看沙特吧!一个华人为主的国家,死守李光耀的政策没用,因为时间变了
Republicans failure to control trump reckless foreign policies is going to pay the price during the mid term elections. Middle east countries are thinking of forming a Sunni NATO , because they know USA 5th fleet can't protect them at all from Iran.
ASEAN should think like Saudi Arabia and form it's own military alliance, USA 5th fleet can't defend GCC countries from Iran has proof USA doesn't have enough testosterone to win a war.
🙏 🌍 ❤.
For many years the US not only neglected ASEAN, it looked down on ASEAN. Did not want ASEAN to grow. China sees the potential of ASEAN and made it is crown jewel. Now the US wants it back. Or it will destroy ASEAN. You can already see what it is doing with the Philippines… From past records the world can see the US albeit the greatest country in the world, cannot build. It is only good at destroying….That's why the greatest US geo-political icon in the world, Henry Kissinger famously said, "To be an enemy of the US is dangerous but to be its friend is FATAL…" No good choice for ASEAN now…..
Well…. That's how the AI+PAC colonized using America as their proxy 😂😂😂
Ask him why Singapore has the highest tariff rates despite having a trade deficit with the US. The interviewer must do her job
Does the Greatest Bully (The US) wants to make Trade Commitment to Asia or she contemplate to disrupt and destroy the Peaceful Trade Harmony in Asia.???
