Trump on Removing Russian Sanctions #donaldtrump #russia #sanctions #tariffs

it's a great question the problem with what we have with sanctions and I was a user of sanctions but i' put them on and take them off as quickly as possible because ultimately it kills your dollar and it kills everything the dollar represents and we have to continue to have that be the world currency I think it's important I think would be losing a war if we lost if we lost the dollar as a as the world currency I think that would be the equivalent of losing a war that would make us a third world country and we can't let it happen so I use sanctions very powerfully against countries that deserve it and then I take them off because look you're losing Iran you're losing Russia China is out there trying to get their currency to be the dominant currency as you know better than anybody all of these things are happening you're losing so many countries because there's so much conflict with all of these countries that you're going to lose that and we can't lose that so uh I want to use sanctions as little as possible
