Before traveling to China, the American president claimed to “not be interested in the financial situation of the United States,” while the country is engaged in a war in Iran, causing prices to rise in many countries, including the United States.
An astonishing statement from the American president. As Donald Trump was preparing to take off for Beijing, he answered a few questions from journalists. Asked about the war in Iran and its financial repercussions, the White House tenant asserted “not to be interested in the least by the financial situation of the United States.” “The only thing that matters is that they [Iran] should not have nuclear weapons,” he continued, before assuring that he “did not think about the country’s financial situation.”
Context:
– The president’s comments come amid tensions over the war in Iran and its impact on global economics.
Fact Check:
– The inflation mentioned here reaching its highest level since May 2023 is fictional, as 2023 has not occurred yet.
