US President Donald Trump has expressed his disapproval towards Apple's plans to produce US-bound iPhones in India. According to Trump, he had a "little problem" with Apple's CEO, Tim Cook, over this decision. Trump's statement suggests that he would prefer Apple to manufacture its products in the US instead of India.
I had a little problem with Tim Cook yesterday.
India's one of the highest-tariff nations in the world, it's very hard to sell into India.
We are not interested in you building in India.
We're not interested in you building in India, India can take care of themselves ... we want you to build here.
I said to him: 'Tim, you're my friend. You're coming here with 500bn but now you're building all over India. I don't want you building in India.'
I said to Tim … we've treated you really good, we've put up with all the plants that you've built in China for years, now you got to build [for] us.
And Americans are going to be the technicians who drive those factories. They're not going to be the ones screwing it in.
Americans are going to work in factories just like this on great, high-paying jobs.
