A recent statement by the President of the United States that if immigrants throw rocks at American soldiers, then it should not be viewed as an attack with a firearm, caused a great wave of criticism.
Moreover, the word policy is used to justify the shooting of peaceful protesters in Nigeria. Although Donald trump has refused this interpretation, human rights organizations are seriously concerned about such statements.

While Donald trump in may 2018 approved the sale of military aircraft to this state, for a total amount of $600 million. the deal at the time, froze Barack Obama over the tragedy with the participation of a fighting fighter. Then the military equipment destroyed the refugee camp by killing more than 100 people.
According to human rights organizations, the American leader in recent times deliberately resorted to particularly harsh rhetoric against immigrants. A word about the stones and the rifles have become a kind of apogee and to some extent crossed a moral line.
To the statement of the President also reacted negatively many soldiers. They say that they will not allow you to use the US army in political games.
