00:00 Hopeful Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley's statements have triggered debates
00:06 on social media.
00:07 According to a media report, Nikki Haley has stated that although India wants to be a partner
00:12 with the United States, it does not trust the US leadership.
00:17 She also noted how India and Russia have so strategically maintained a tight relationship
00:22 in the current world.
00:23 "I have dealt with India too.
00:25 I have got to say, I have dealt with India too.
00:28 I have partnered with Modi and India wants to be a partner with the United States."
00:32 However, she further added that they, India, doesn't want to be a partner with Russia.
00:37 According to Haley, the problem is India doesn't trust the United States to win.
00:42 They don't trust the United States to lead.
00:44 They want to see right now that the United States is weak and India has always played
00:49 it smart.
00:50 And so they have stayed close with Russia because that's where they get a lot of their
00:54 military equipment.
00:56 She said in a response to a question on Fox News.
01:00 Haley further added that when we start to lead again, when we start to get the weakness
01:04 out and stop putting our head in the sand, that's when our friend India, Australia, New
01:09 Zealand, all of them and Israel, Japan, South Korea, all of them want to do that.
01:14 Japan gave themselves a billion-dollar stimulus to become less dependent on China.
01:19 Even India gave themselves a billion-dollar stimulus to become less dependent on China,
01:23 she told, adding that the US needs to start building up its alliance very soon.
01:28 For the unaware, Nikki Haley, who herself is of Indian descent, has been aiming to challenge
01:33 Trump for the Republican Party presidential nomination.
01:36 However, the chances are very grim.
01:39 She recently encountered a big setback in the Nevada primary as voters opted for none
01:44 of these candidates over Haley, marking her as the first to suffer such a defeat since
01:49 the option's inception in 1975.
01:53 This outcome has dented Haley's aspiration to emerge as a serious contender against Donald
01:58 Trump within the Republican Party.
02:00 However, the new statements given by her have triggered debate that is that true whether
02:05 India wants to be a partner with Russia and the United States or not.
