		</div><p>Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump has warned countries like France that he says are compromised by terrorism may be subjected to the &#8220;extreme vetting&#8221; he proposes to deter attacks in the US.</p>
<p>When asked if his proposal might lead to a point when few people from overseas are allowed into the US, Mr Trump said: &#8220;Maybe we get to that point&#8221;.</p>
<p>He added, in the interview to air on Sunday on NBC&#8217;s Meet The Press: &#8220;We have to be smart and we have to be vigilant and we have to be strong.&#8221;</p>
<p>For months Mr Trump has called for a temporary ban on foreign Muslims seeking to enter the United States and criticised the Obama administration for continuing to admit refugees from Syria.</p>
<p>He returned to the idea in his speech on Thursday night at the Republican National Convention in Cleveland, Ohio.</p>
<p>Mr Trump said the US &#8220;must immediately suspend immigration from any nation that has been compromised by terrorism until such time as proven vetting mechanisms have been put in place&#8221; &#8211; notably leaving out any reference to Muslims or to Syria, Iraq and other Middle East nations.</p>
<p>In the NBC interview, Mr Trump noted &#8220;specific problems&#8221; in Germany and France &#8211; both countries have been rocked by fatal attacks in public places in recent weeks.</p>
<p>Meet The Press host Chuck Todd asked if his proposal would limit immigration from France, adding: &#8220;They&#8217;ve been compromised by terrorism.&#8221;</p>
<p>Mr Trump replied: &#8220;They have totally been. And you know why? It&#8217;s their own fault. Because they allowed people to come into their territory.&#8221;</p>
<p>He then called for &#8220;extreme vetting&#8221; and said: &#8220;We have to have tough, we&#8217;re going to have tough standards. If a person can&#8217;t prove what they have to be able to prove, they&#8217;re not coming into this country.&#8221;</p>
<p>During his interview, Mr Trump also took issue with descriptions of his convention speech as &#8220;dark&#8221;.</p>
<p>He said: &#8221;It was an optimistic speech.&#8221;</p>
<p>Referring to his mentions of crime as well as shootings and terrorist attacks both here and overseas, he said, &#8220;Sure, I talk about the problems, but we&#8217;re going to solve the problems.&#8221;</p>
<p>The White House candidate also defended Roger Ailes, the founder of US TV network Fox News, who has resigned amid accusations of sexual harassment by numerous women.</p>
<p>Mr Trump described Mr Ailes as a long-time friend and said &#8220;some of the women&#8221; complaining about him had been helped by him in the past and earlier had said good things about him.</p>
<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s very sad,&#8221; Mr Trump said. &#8220;Because he&#8217;s a very good person. I&#8217;ve always found him to be just a very, very good person.&#8221;</p>
