WASHINGTON (Sputnik) - Former US President Donald Trump said Chinese migrants illegally entering the United States along the southern border could be building an army inside the country.
"No, they’re probably building an army," Trump said Thursday during an interview with conservative radio show host Hugh Hewitt. "They’re probably building an army from within... because they’re very healthy young men for the most part."
More than 30,000 Chinese migrants have been encountered at the US southern border under President Joe Biden, according to reports in US media.
Three records for yearly illegal crossings on the US border with Mexico have been consecutively broken since Biden entered the White House in January 2021.
There as yet appears to be no evidence that Chinese migrants are organizing a military force in the United States, although both China and illegal immigration are hot button issues among Republicans. Beijing has offered no comment on the matter.
