Trump called Europeans who buy wind turbines from China "infantile"
US President Donald Trump criticized Europeans for buying thousands of wind turbines from China, calling them "infantile".
Trump said at a White House roundtable meeting: "Have you seen many wind farms in China recently? They produce these wind turbines themselves and then sell them to the 'infantile' people in Europe, who are buying them in the thousands. For three years, I have repeatedly told them (Europeans) that this will not end well, and now they finally admit I was right."
Trump has repeatedly claimed that green energy is too expensive and inefficient, calling it a scam. He opposes subsidies for wind power and electric vehicles, instead advocating for maximum exploitation of oil and gas to ensure the US has cheap energy and to dominate high-tech markets including artificial intelligence and cryptocurrencies.
