California fires: Trump, Biden and Newsom argued about the causes of the disaster

Fires in California have not yet been brought under control. More than one million hectares of forest have already been destroyed by fire and continues to advance, getting closer and closer to Los Angeles. This is stated in the video "Voices of America".

Residents of Arcadia, around which the mountains are blazing with renewed vigor, thought yesterday that the worst was over. Today they are "on suitcases" again.

“We are very concerned, we are all ready to evacuate. I almost started taking things apart, I thought the fires were behind me, but the fire broke out again,” says Sal Gonzales, a California resident.

Californians leave messages of gratitude to the firefighters fighting for every house and leave to escape the fire. Due to the fires over Southern California, smog and the acrid smell of burning hung. The bright red sun is shrouded in a thick layer of smoke

However, the entire west coast is now on fire. In the states of Washington and Oregon, local residents admit that they have never seen such a destructive fire.

“This is the worst thing I've seen in my life. I watched the fires on TV, but in reality everything is a thousand times worse than you can imagine,” Ashley Brittain, a resident of Oregon, shares her experiences.

Dozens of victims, thousands of people were left homeless, tens of thousands in the evacuation zone. But still the largest fires are raging now in California. The region, choking in smoke, blazes from south to north, so US President Donald Trump decided to fly to the state in person.

California Governor Gavin Newsom, at a working meeting with the head of state, named one of the main reasons for such devastating fires - climate change.

“We feel the weather is getting hotter, drier, fires are raging and we are in a drought where we have lost 163 million trees. Something is happening to this world,” Newsom emphasized.

Donald Trump has a different opinion on this matter. The president is confident the state's fires are raging because of poor forestry management. In response to experts' words about climate change in California, the president joked.

“It’s going to get colder, you’ll see,” Trump said.

“I wish science shared your opinion,” retorted one of those present at the meeting.

“I don’t think science really knows what’s going on,” the head of state added.

Joe Biden immediately responded to this statement by Trump on Twitter. “Science knows,” wrote the Democrat, who agrees that climate change is contributing to the increase in fires. By the way, at this meeting, Trump himself was repeatedly asked by journalists about his relationship with the governor, Democrat Newsom, because both of them, in addition to climate issues, had many other differences in their views.

“We communicate well and have an excellent relationship, despite the fact that we are on opposite sides. We have a good relationship with him, he’s a great guy,” the president responded.

Trump also recalled that in spite of everything, at the request of the governor, he immediately introduced a state of emergency in the state and provided all kinds of assistance. But even with federal support, it has not been possible to completely take the situation under control. The fight against the fire element, according to experts, will continue in the state for at least another month. They hope to eliminate large fires in California only by the end of October.
