At the AI Summit on Wednesday, U.S. President Donald Trump criticized major tech firms for shifting jobs overseas and prioritizing global interests over American workers, www.naijnaira.com reports. He accused industry leaders of putting profits ahead of national responsibility, saying their actions have damaged trust across the country.
During his speech, Trump took aim at companies operating factories in China and outsourcing jobs to India, labeling these moves as part of what he described as “radical globalism.” According to Outlook India, he believes this trend has sidelined everyday Americans while benefiting foreign economies and corporate bottom lines.
Trump stated, “They’ve built their factories in China, hired workers in India, cut profits in Ireland, and silenced voices at home.” He made it clear that this pattern would no longer be tolerated during his presidency.
He called on the tech industry to adopt what he referred to as “a new spirit of patriotism,” and pushed for Silicon Valley to align with national interests.
“Put America first. That’s all we ask,” Trump urged.
At the same event, he signed three executive orders to enhance AI development in the U.S., including an action plan to boost AI exports and support the domestic AI sector through coordinated national initiatives.
