WASHINGTON: U.S. President Donald Trump said he met with the chief executive of Alphabet Inc's Google on Wednesday and discussed"political fairness" and the company's business in China.
"He stated strongly that he is totally committed to the U.S. Military, not the Chinese Military," Trump said on Twitter of his meeting with Google CEO Sundar Pichai."Also discussed political fairness and various things that @Google can do for our Country. Meeting ended very well!," Trump said. "We were pleased to have productive conversations with the President about investing in the future of the American workforce, the growth of emerging technologies and our ongoing commitment to working with the U.S. government," a Google spokesperson said in a statement.
The top U.S. general, Marine General Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, told a Senate committee hearing earlier this month that the Chinese military was benefiting from the work Google was doing in China.AdvertisementIn a tweet last week, Trump accused social media platforms Facebook, Google's YouTube and Twitter of favouring his Democratic opponents over him and his fellow Republicans and said he would look into the issue.
