Trump to speech before nation: I keep my promises

American President Donald Trump mentioned before Congress the promises made since coming to power, with a firm, optimistic tone focused on America's great recovery.

“Unlike many others before me, I keep my promises”, he said, according to fragments from his speech to the nation, issued in advance by the White House.

On the front of foreign policy, he had to benefit from this huge annual meeting to reaffirm his desire to end America's Middle East wars.

In a more consensual registry, Donald Trump also noted the signing of a law providing for 12 weeks of paid parenting for all federal civil servants, a law protected by the democrat opposition and his daughter and adviser, Ivanka Trump.

The republican billionaire will seek a second four-year term in November.
