(CNSNews.com) - President Trump on Tuesday announced that "plans to reopen the country are close to being finalized," and he said he will soon be sharing the details and guidelines with "everybody."

"I will be speaking to all 50 governors very shortly, and I will then be authorizing each individual governor of each individual state to implement a reopening, and a very powerful reopening plan...at a time and in a manner as most appropriate."

Trump said different states will open in different ways and at different times, "maybe even before the date of May 1st."

Trump also said, "I'm not going to put any pressure on any governor to open."

He spoke on the same day that California Gov. Gavin Newsom began looking ahead to the "new normal," and a day after the governors of New York and five other northeastern states announced plans to study how they can reopen their economies.

"I'm not going to say to Governor Cuomo, you've got to open within seven days," Trump said. "I want him to take his time, do it right and then open New York. I'm not putting any pressure on the governors. Some of them don't need pressure or not pressure; I mean they are ready to--they're ready to go, and that is a good thing. So we will open it up in beautiful little pieces as it comes along."

The president said more than 20 states are "in extremely good shape, and we think we will be able to get them open fairly quickly, and then others will follow."

The governors are going to be running their individual states. Some of them will say no, I can't open now; and some of them may last longer than we even would think. Others will say I can...I don't want to mention states, but there are numerous states that are in great shape right now. They're viewing the rest of the country, like, we don't even believe this is happening. We have a lot of those states. They are set to open practically now. I mean, they would be open now. We're going to let them open sooner than the date. We are going to pick a date, we are going to get a date that is good, but it's going to be very, very soon. Sooner than the end of the month. But there are many states out there that are looking at this, and they are reviewing it and they are saying we shouldn't be even included in this. You know, there are some that want to open up almost now. Now, if we disagree with it, we're not going to let them open; we're not going to let them. If some governor said, you know, has a lot of problems, a lot of cases, a lot of death, and they want to open early, we're not going to let it happen. So we are there to watch. We are there to help, but we are also there to be critics. And on testing, very important, we have always wanted the states to do the testing. We're now providing great testing, but the state has to provide the great testing. The state has to provide the ventilators, but they didn't do that, so we ended up going into the ventilator business, essentially, and we made tens of thousands of ventilators, and we solved the big problem for the states, but we want them to do the testing, and we are there to help.

Trump said he is "studying other countries as they open" to see what works and what doesn't work.

A reporter asked Trump what he would say to workers who are "fearful about going back to work" and getting sick:

"Well, that's going to be up to the governors. The governors are going to want to make sure everything's safe," Trump said:
