Trump adds enemies, but is already thinking about re-election

President Donald Trump has described Russia, the European Union and China as "enemies" of the United States, for various reasons, in an interview published yesterday, on the eve of his meeting with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki. "I think we have a lot of enemies, I think the European Union is an enemy, because of what they do to us in trade," said the US president. Regarding Russia, he said that "it is an enemy in some ways" and that China "is an enemy economically". "But that does not mean that they're bad, it does not mean anything, it means that they're competitive."

Trump also expressed his desire to run for reelection in 2020. Although he admits that "you never know what's going on with health and other things," confirmed that He "has every intention" to be a candidate for the Republican party again. "It seems like everyone wants us to do it," he said.

He also referred to what he perceives from opposition. "I do not see anyone, I know them all and I do not see anyone, they do not have the right candidate," he said.

Trump hopes to hold his first official summit with Vladimir Putin today. Both should talk about Syria, Ukraine, arms control and Russia's alleged interference in the 2016 US elections.

"I'm leaving with low expectations", has said the US president. "I believe having meetings with Russia, China or North Korea, nothing bad will come out of it, and maybe something good will come out."
