Trump Warns of More US Strikes in Nigeria

President Donald Trump said in an interview that the US might carry out more military strikes in Nigeria if Christians continue to be killed.

The US had previously conducted a strike against Islamic State militants in Nigeria at the request of the Nigerian government.

Trump believes that Christians are being targeted, but Nigeria's government says that militants are killing both Christians and Muslims, and that there is no systematic persecution of Christians.

Trump has previously threatened to intervene militarily in Nigeria to protect Christians, but Nigeria has rejected the idea that Christians are in particular danger.
