The Google CEO must call President Donald Trump to apologize

Although Google is not at fault in this.

In a recent press conference at the White House, President Donald Trump said that CEO Sundar Pichai had to call him to apologize. While it's unclear what the CEO of Google called to apologize for, he later praised the Google media team for proving his previous comments about the classified website. The corona virus test is true.

President Donald Trump said: 'I want to thank Google and the people in their media team, for proving that the words I said on the following are true. The Google CEO, a wonderful man, called me and apologized. I don't know where the media got the fake news, but they did get it somewhere. It would be great if we could properly report the news. '

Google did not have any comments on the content of the call between CEO Sundar Pichai and Mr. Trump. But, Google today posted a new notice on its blog site. In particular, Google has confirmed its cooperation with the US Government and moves to help prevent the Covid-19 epidemic, and remove some previously misleading information.

Mr. Trump said the news sites had reported fake and not contacted Google for accurate information.

Last Friday, President Donald Trump said that 1,700 Google engineers were developing a website for testing the Covid-19 disease test, also known as the Verily project. But the fact is that Google does not need 1,700 engineers to participate in a website development project.

Here's what Mr. Trump said:

'I want to thank Google. Google is helping develop a website. It will be done very quickly, unlike in the past. Google has 1,700 engineers working on this right now. They have made great progress. Our most important goal is to prevent the spread of the virus. "

According to Trump's speech on Friday, Google will soon launch a website that will allow all Americans to answer a few investigative questions, to see if they need the Covid-19 test.

According to media reports after contacting Google, the Verily project is in fact not something as big as what Trump described. Even this project is still in the early stages, not really ready for any public statement, and will be applied in a limited way, instead of for all people.

It seems that President Donald Trump doesn't really understand what Google is doing, but he still thinks his previous statement is true. And the fact that the media coverage of it is false, making Mr. Trump not really comfortable.

That led to Google's Sundar Pichai CEO calling to apologize to Trump for causing these misunderstandings. In fact, it is Google who is not at fault for this.
