Trump seriously believes: Austrians live in the woods – Austria –

The devastating wildfires in the western United States have destroyed large areas in recent weeks and the numbers continue to rise. In ten states alone, including California, Oregon and Washington, 87 large fires devastated more than 18,600 square kilometers of land, according to the federal agency’s National Interagency Fire Center on Monday.

Six of the current fires are already among the 20 largest in the history of the “Golden State” since records began around 1930.

In an interview with “Fox”, the president of the United States, Donald Trump, now highlighted the European continent, in particular Austria with its “forest cities”, as a model for the prevention of forest fires.

Look, there are forests all over the world. There are no fires like in California. You know, there are forest cities in Europe. If you look at countries like Austria, if you look at so many countries that live in forests that are known as forest cities, there are a lot of them and they don’t have such fires. ”

Although there are “more explosive trees” there, Trump said in an interview.

“They have trees that burn faster. But they keep the fire under control, they dilute the explosive, the explosive is in the ground, the leaves, the falling trees, they dry like a match at 18 months. If they are on the ground for more than 18 months, they are very explosive and they have to get rid of those things. ”

Trump is on the trail of something very hot in Austria … 🇦🇹 https://t.co/XoOgENWXHw

1) Trump seriously believes: Austrians live in the forest.

2.) Trump also believes: these homes in the woods are called forest towns

3) Trump also believes: Austria’s forests are made up of exploding trees

4) Ultimately, Trump thinks he knows: we Austrians have fewer forest fires, despite explosive trees, because we dilute the explosives on the forest floor.
