UNITED NATIONS: The United States Ambassador to the United Nations, Nikki Haley, has said that President Donald Trump's "communication style" is not something she can defend.
In an interview with CBS-TV network on Sunday, Haley said she is able to be outspoken with the president when she disagrees with him but could not defend the way he communicates.
"First of all, he has his communication style, but you're not hearing me defend that," she said in response to a question about what she says to those who believe the president's behaviour is reprehensible.
"What I will tell you is, if there is anything that he communicates in a way that I'm uncomfortable with, I pick up the phone and call him, and I tell him that. And I think that's something that he deserves from me," Haley added.
Trump has been known to make blunt assertions on social media, which he said helps him get his "unfiltered" message across, but has created controversy and sometimes even rifts in the delicate world of diplomacy.
With his unconventional style, Trump has also created strains with American long time allies in Europe and Asia.
