Meanwhile, at a campaign rally in Colorado, US President Donald Trump slammed the Oscars for giving the best picture award to the South Korean film “Parasite“, and also took aim at Hollywood actor Brad Pitt.

“By the way, how bad were the Academy Awards this year?” Trump asked the crowd at the rally on Thursday.

“And the winner is… a movie from South Korea! What the hell was that all about?

“We’ve got enough problems with South Korea, with trade. On top of it, they give them the best movie of the year! Was it good? I don’t know. Let’s get ‘Gone with the Wind’ back please. ‘Sunset Boulevard’. So many great movies,” he added.

Trump linked the political and economic situation of both countries with the prize given to the film that has also triumphed at festivals such as Cannes, reports Efe news.
