Washington DC, 25/11: In 2018, the arrest of an executive with Chinese tech giant Huawei Technologies Co for breaching US laws shocked President Xi Jinping’s inner circle and raised questions over whether Donald Trump would intervene in the case.
Trump now faces a similar dilemma after US prosecutors charged Gautam Adani — India’s most powerful businessman and a close ally of Prime Minister Narendra Modi — in a $250 million bribery scheme. While Modi’s party called it a private matter, and AdaniAdani’s company denied the allegations, the case threatens to roil US-India diplomatic ties.
