WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump on Friday vowed the United States would assist Myanmar after it was hit by a huge earthquake, following a rare plea for aid by the South-east Asian nation’s ruling junta.
“It’s terrible,” Mr Trump told reporters in the Oval Office about the quake when asked if he would respond to the appeal by Myanmar’s military rulers.
“It’s a real bad one, and we will be helping. We’ve already spoken with the country.”
