Presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump set out sharply different ideas about America’s allies in Asia during their debate Monday night. Clinton, a former United States Senator and Secretary of State, is the candidate of the Democratic Party. Trump, a businessman, is the Republican Party’s choice for president. In the debate, Clinton noted existing U.S. agreements to defend the Asian allies with conventional or nuclear weapons, if necessary. She sharply criticized Trump’s earlier statements that suggested he might withdraw troops from Asia if elected. “He has said repeatedly that he didn’t care if other nations got nuclear weapons Japan, South Korea, even Saudi Arabia.” Trump reacted to her comment by saying that Clinton was misrepresenting his position. He repeated his call for the allies to pay a greater share of security costs. “All I said was they may have to defend themselves or they have to help us out.” Trump also said that he wanted to negotiate a better deal to get more support for defense efforts aiding both sides.
