WASHINGTON, October 27. /TASS/. European countries were facing a huge immigration problem, US President Donald Trump told journalists traveling with the White House press pool.
"I’m not worried about it. No, I don’t worry about that at all. That’s an immigration problem. They have a huge problem. They should have stopped it a long time ago, and I know every one of them," the US leader said upon returning to Washington from Mississippi, responding to a journalist’s question about protests in European countries.
Trump previously expressed the view that European countries needed to change, primarily by tightening immigration controls, or else there will be nothing left of them. He also said Europe needed to find its own path in the very near future, or the United States would have no choice but to leave. A number of US observers interpreted these remarks, among other things, as evidence that Trump was prepared to withdraw the United States from NATO in the foreseeable future.
