US Vice President JD Vance is set to travel to India later this month, marking his second foreign trip ever since he took charge in the Donald Trump government. According to a report with Politico, Vance will be accompanied by Second Lady Usha Vance.
Vance marked his debut foreign visit to France and Germany last month. His first foreign trip was marked by a fiery speech at the Munich Security Conference in Germany, where he slammed European governments for their handling of illegal migration, ignoring religious freedoms, and overturning elections.
Vance‘s comments about the planned British- and French-led European peacekeeping force caused politicians and veterans in both countries to say he was dishonouring hundreds of troops killed fighting alongside US forces in Afghanistan and Iraq.
Later, Vance denied disrespecting Britain and France by describing a planned peacekeeping force in Ukraine as 20,000 troops from some “random country that has not fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.
