Trump issues WTO warning in meeting with Dutch leader
President Donald Trump offered a veiled threat to the World Trade Organization on Monday, warning during a meeting with Dutch Prime Minister Mark Rutte that if the WTO doesn’t treat the U.S. “properly, we will be doing something.”
Trump again denied plans to withdraw the U.S. from the WTO but told reporters in the Oval Office that the trade organization needed to change its ways. The comments came as he conferred with Rutte on trade and security ahead of next week’s NATO summit in Brussels.
