President Trump said he is “not at all” worried that Russia, China and Iran are doing joint military exercises.
Trump was asked by a reporter on Sunday about the news that the three countries are launching annual joint naval drills and if he was concerned.
“No, not at all. Not at all,” he replied.
“Why not?” the reporter asked.
“Because we’re stronger than all of them. We have more power than all of them. I rebuilt the military, unfortunately, Biden did nothing with it, but I rebuilt the military,” Trump said.
The president then deflected the question, noting that “we don’t want to even talk about” it.
“Let’s see what happens with the whole Russia-Ukraine thing,” he continued. “I think you’re gonna have, eventually, and maybe not in the distant future, you’re gonna have some pretty good results coming out of Saudi Arabia this week.”
Trump was referencing the forthcoming negotiations between international leaders looking to end the war between Russia and Ukraine.
U.S. and Ukrainian officials are set to meet in Saudi Arabia this week, with the aim of restructuring peace talks after progress on negotiations stalled following an explosive meeting between Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.
The president's remarks and the meeting come as warships from Iran, China and Russia began their annual joint military exercises in the Gulf of Oman on Monday.
It’s the fifth time the countries have held joint military activities since 2019, CNN reported.
Experts have seen the exercises as a show of power and strengthening of ties between the three countries. They have prompted mounting concern as Trump has dramatically shifted the U.S.'s approach to international affairs, including by warming the country's relations with Russia and pausing support for Ukraine.
