Former President Joe Biden accused of corruption
Washington (USA) – “Why was there a need to give $21 million (₹182 crore) to increase voter turnout in India ? What do we have to do with India’s voter turnout ? We have many problems here too. We need to increase our voter turnout. But did this money actually reach India ? Do you know whether India received this money and spent it ? That did not happen. India returned the money to those who sent it,” revealed former US President Donald Trump while speaking at the ‘Republican Governors Association’ meeting. BJP’s IT cell chief, Amit Malviya, shared a video of Trump’s statement on X (formerly Twitter). Earlier, Trump had claimed that this amount was given to India. With his latest statement, Trump has accused former President Joe Biden of corruption.

Bangladesh also received $29 million – Trump reveals
Trump further disclosed that $29 million was given to improve the political situation in Bangladesh, and $19 million was allocated for biodiversity in Nepal. (The question arises whether this money was genuinely used for this purpose or to destabilise Sheikh Hasina’s Government. Trump should provide clarity on this too – Editor)
Trump added, “Why was there a need to give $29 million to improve the political situation in Bangladesh ? No one even knows about the political situation there. Additionally, $20 million was given for fiscal federalism and $19 million for biodiversity in Nepal. Furthermore, $47 million was spent on improving the education sector in Asia. Why are we worried about all this ? We have many pending issues here. Now, we are going to put an end to this.”
