Shutdown deadlock:  Trump to comment in the evening – new offer expected from Democrats

Almost a month of government downtime in the US already. The US President announced a speech for the evening – with uncertain content.

US President Donald Trump wants to speak today in a live broadcast on the government’s resignation in the United States. According to media reports, the president is expected to make a new offer to the Democrats to end the shutdown.

One of Trump’s proposals to the Democrats is to extend visas for so-called “dreamer” – people who have come illegally to the United States as minors and are now entitled to a residence permit. In return, however, the President probably expects full approval for the $ 5.7 billion border security package he has demanded.
