India, China don’t give real numbers on Covid-19: Trump

The US President Donald Trump mentioned India twice during a debate with his rival presidential candidate Joe Biden, but for all the wrong reasons.

As Joe Biden questioned Donald Trump’s response towards the Covid-19 pandemic with US being the worst-affected country in the world, Trump was quick to doubt the virus data of India and China.

“We don’t know how many people died of Covid-19 in China, Russia, India… because they do not give straight answers, they don’t give real numbers,” Trump said.

As Joe Biden talked about how many US families have lost their loved ones due to coronavirus, Donald Trump said it is due to China.

Donald Trump said that 2 million people would have died if Joe Biden were president.

In yet another reference to India and China during a discussion on climate change, Donald Trump said, “China sends up real dirt into the air. Russia does. India does.”
