US President Donald Trump has said that the Biden administration allocated $18 million in funding to India to help with its elections, arguing that the country doesn't need this money.
His remarks came during a speech at the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Saturday after he repeatedly attacked the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) for allegedly allocating $21 million in funding to India for “voter turnout”.
