Indian-origin candidate Nikki Haley, who is in the race to become the Republican candidate for the US presidential election, made a big statement about India.
He said that the present India no longer trusts America and considers it weak.
Not only this, he also targeted the close relations between India and Russia. Nikki said that India is becoming smart and has maintained friendship with Russia in the current circumstances.
Aspiring Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley on Wednesday said India wants to be a partner with the US, but does not yet trust the Americans to lead.
Nikki also said that India has shown tact in the current global situation and has been close with Russia. In an interview with Fox Business News, 51-year-old Haley said that at present India considers America weak.
Nikki said, “I have also dealt with India. I have spoken to (Prime Minister Narendra) Modi. India wants to be a partner with us.
They don’t want to be partners with Russia. But the problem is that India does not have confidence in our victory. They don’t have confidence in us that we can lead. They see right now that we are weak. India has always shown cleverness in this matter. They have really played it smart, and they have been close to Russia. “Because that’s where they get a lot of their military equipment.”
Haley, former governor of South Carolina, said, “When we start leading again, start addressing our weaknesses, only then will our friends, India, Australia, New Zealand and Israel, Japan, South Korea do the same.”
Citing the example of Japan, he said that the country has given itself an incentive of billions of dollars to become less dependent on China.
“India also gave itself a $1 billion incentive to reduce its dependence on China,” he told Fox Business News. He said that America needs to start building its own alliances.
Let us tell you that Haley (52), former US Ambassador to the United Nations and former Governor of South Carolina, is the only contender left who is challenging Trump (77) to become the Republican candidate.
Trump is the Republican candidate and Biden (81) is the strongest contender to become the Democratic candidate.
