President Donald Trump has warned of a nationwide deployment of troops to quell protests.
This is the first time since taking office that Donald Trump has faced such large-scale protests.
Although the protests were peaceful at the beginning, the movement is becoming increasingly violent. The White House has witnessed the clash.
Earlier, Trump called on state governors to avoid chaos in the name of protest. Instructed to take strict action if necessary.
But this time, not a call, but a direct threat from US President Donald Trump.
In a speech to the Rose Garden on Monday, Trump warned governors of various states that he would be forced to make tough decisions if local administrations failed to uphold the rule of law.
"As president of the United States, I have a responsibility to protect the lives of every American," he said. Judas Floyd's family will also receive justice. But what is happening in the name of protest cannot be accepted. Ordinary people are suffering. I will tell the governors to be strict in controlling the situation. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to deploy troops in all the states.
The Trump administration has already deployed at least 250 troops to Washington, D.C., under the federal government.
At the end of the speech, Trump left the White House on foot in the interest of security.
The U.S. president was hiding in a bunker at the White House in the face of protests on Friday. Trump has expressed outrage after the news broke in the US media.
He was inside the White House from Sunday to Monday.
The opposition is criticizing the president's role in the national crisis.
Hillary Clinton has criticized the president's decision to use force to combat violence.
The governor of Michigan has criticized the president for attacking state governors one after another without controlling the situation.
The Pentagon has expressed dissatisfaction with the president's decision.
