Former US President Donald Trump on Thursday condemned the attacks on Hindus in Bangladesh, vowed to strengthen ties with India, and described Prime Minister Narendra Modi as his good friend. While extending Diwali greetings, the Republican presidential candidate said Bangladesh remained in a state of total chaos and alleged that his Democratic rival, Vice-President Kamala Harris, and President Joe Biden had ignored Hindus across the world and in America. “I strongly condemn the barbaric violence against Hindus, Christians, and other minorities who are getting attacked and looted by mobs in Bangladesh, which remains in a total state of chaos,” Trump said in a post on Truth Social, his social media site.
This is the first time Trump has spoken on the turmoil that has gripped Bangladesh after students’ protests brought down the Sheikh Hasina government and forced the Prime Minister to flee the country on August 5. Hundreds of Hindus were killed in July-August in Bangladesh and continue to be targeted. “It would have never happened on my watch.
Kamala and Joe have ignored Hindus across the world and in America. They have been a disaster from Israel to Ukraine to our own Southern Border, but we will Make America Strong Again and bring back Peace through Strength,” Trump posted. “We will also protect Hindu Americans against the anti-religion agenda of the radical left.
We will fight for your freedom. Under my administration, we will also strengthen our great partnershi.
