DAVOS: President Donald Trump on Friday called on world powers to do more to confront the threat posed by Iran due to its alleged support for terror groups.
He was addressing theWorld Economic Forum in Davos, a gathering of generally pro-free-trade political and business leaders.
“We continue to call on partners to confront Iran’s support for terrorists and block Iran’s path to a nuclear weapon,” Trump told the forum.
Trump also called for “maximum pressure” to de-nuke the Korean Peninsula.
The US president, in his debut appearance at the forum, said that the US was open for business, clarifying one of his campaign mantras.
"America First does not mean America alone," he said."The world is experiencing the resurgence of a strong and prosperous America. America is open for business and we are competitive once again."
Trump said that the United States was more attractive than ever to foreign investment under his year-old presidency.
But he warned: "We cannot have free and open trade if some countries exploit the system at the expense of others.
"We support free trade but it needs to be fair and it needs to be reciprocal. The United States will no longer turn a blind eye to unfair economic practices."
