MOSCOW (Pakistan Point News / Sputnik - 30th May, 2020) US President Donald Trump said Saturday he would send the military to the protest-hit city of Minneapolis if its authorities ask for help.
"We have our military willing, ready and able... We can have our troops on the ground very quickly if they want our military. They are using their National Guard right now," he told reporters.
Trump went on to accuse the "radical left" of staging the riots, which erupted after the death in police custody of unarmed black man George Floyd.
