Local time 12, many Norwegians decisively rejected Trump's invitation.

According to reports, when US Senator 1 1 introduced the newly drafted immigration bill to Trump, Trump declared, "Why should we take in people from these African countries? These are inferior countries ... we should absorb more people from Norway. "

Thorbjoern Sarteur, a Conservative official of a local government near Oslo, Norway, rejected Trump's invitation on 12. He said, "I want to say thank you to Norway, but no, thank you!"

Other Norwegians condemned Trump's inappropriate words and racial discrimination. A woman wrote: "We won't come, thanks to Norway."

Christian Christensen, a professor of American journalism at Stockholm University in Sweden, wrote on Twitter: "Of course, Norwegians love to go to a country with a much higher probability of being shot.

Some analysts believe that Trump mentioned Norway at the White House meeting on June 5438+0 1 day because he just met with visiting Norwegian Prime Minister solberg on June 5438+00, and the two sides seemed to have a good talk. Trump even announced at the press conference after the meeting that the United States could consider "rejoining" the Paris Agreement that it withdrew from last summer.

An American magazine website 1 1 sarcastically said, "After talking to the Norwegian Prime Minister for 75 minutes, Trump turned green."

Second, Norway will buy 40 F-35 fighter jets worth $654.38 billion, which enables Trump to boast that the United States has a "trade surplus" with Norway.
