Assimilation of Muslims to be very difficult in Western countries, U.S. President Donald Trump told Fox News.

During the interview the host of the Fox News TV channel asked the president whether it is possible to integrate Muslims into Western civilization, CBS News reported.

“The assimilation has been very, very hard,” Mr. Trump said. “It’s been a very, very difficult process. I want this country to be safe. ”

Trump also added that “many Muslims love our country”.

At the same time the head of the state suggested “to look at what’s going on in Germany, Sweden, Brussels and many other places.”

“It has been a very hard process. We are going to try very, very hard to make it work,” he said.

The interview was recorded before the news of the court ruling to suspend Trump’s immigration order broke shortly before Trump addressed supporters at an evening rally in Nashville, Tennessee.
