Trump Threatens To Pull US Out Of WTO 'If They Don't Shape Up'

US President Donald Trump has threatened to withdraw the US from the World Trade Organization (WTO) if the body fails to improve on its treatment of America.

“If they don’t shape up, I would withdraw from the WTO,” Trump said in an interview with Bloomberg News.

The WTO was established to provide rules for global trade and resolve disputes between countries.

But Trump, who has been pushing protectionist policies, says the US is treated unfairly by the body.

His warning about a possible US pull-out from the organisation highlights the conflict between the president’s trade policies and the open trade system that the WTO oversees.
