US nuclear stockpile can annihilate world 150 times over, claims Trump

WASHINGTON: US President Donald Trump has claimed that several countries, including Pakistan, North Korea, Russia, and China, are conducting underground nuclear tests without public disclosure.

In an interview, Trump said these nations are carrying out tests “deep beneath the ground,” creating only slight tremors that make detection difficult.

The US president stated that America possesses enough nuclear weapons “to destroy the world 150 times,” but emphasized that the United States does not seek to use them. “We don’t want to use nuclear weapons, but we want to test and ensure their effectiveness,” he added.

Meanwhile, China rejected Trump’s remarks, calling them “baseless.” Beijing reiterated that as a responsible nuclear power, its nuclear strategy remains purely defensive in nature.

On the other hand, US President Donald Trump has expressed his desire to make America the “champion” of cryptocurrency.

In an interview, Trump said that crypto has become the world’s largest industry, and the United States currently leads all countries, including China, in this field. “I want America to be the champion in cryptocurrency,” he declared.

The president noted that China is now rapidly entering the crypto sector but emphasized that he does not want Beijing to overtake the United States.

Criticizing former president Joe Biden, Trump said Biden initially opposed cryptocurrencies but changed his stance after realizing that crypto supporters were largely backing Trump. “Biden shifted his position just to win votes,” Trump remarked.
