This statement by Mr. Trump contradicts his previous threat that the US might not fulfill its obligations to its allies as stipulated in the treaty signed with NATO members.

In a foreign policy speech in Ohio, where American voters are still undecided about whether to vote for the Democratic or Republican party, Mr. Trump said he would wage war against IS on many fronts such as “military, cyberspace and finance.”

However, Mr. Trump has not yet been able to point out the differences between the war he plans to wage against IS and the current war that the Obama administration is carrying out. Explaining this, billionaire Trump said that he does not want to talk about military strategy details because the enemy may have time to find a way to deal with it.

“We will defeat radical Islamic terrorism just as we have defeated all other threats,” billionaire Trump confidently declared.

The Republican presidential candidate also said his anti-terrorism plan would include “extreme scrutiny” of immigration records to screen out those who could pose a threat to the United States.

“We will only admit people into the United States who share our values ​​and respect the American people,” Mr. Trump said.

In his speech, candidate Donald Trump also did not forget to criticize his opponent Hillary Clinton, saying that the former US Secretary of State did not have the ability to lead the country.

“More importantly, she (Hillary Clinton) does not have the physical or mental capacity to take on the task of defeating IS as well as defeating all other enemies of America,” billionaire Trump said./.
