President Donald Trump has reposted a video containing an anti-India rant, which labels India and China as 'hell-hole countries.' The video's commentary focused on the issue of birthright citizenship. When asked for a response, India's Ministry of External Affairs stated it had seen the reports and would leave it at that, offering no further comment. The diplomatic brush-off suggests a desire to avoid escalating a public spat with the US administration.
