U.S. President Donald Trump has leveled serious allegations against 23 countries, including India, China, and Pakistan, accusing them of being major drug production centers. According to Trump, these nations are involved not only in producing narcotics but also in manufacturing and transporting the chemicals required to make them.
Presenting his report to the U.S. Congress, Trump argued that such activities pose a direct threat to the safety and well-being of American citizens. The list of countries named includes Afghanistan, Mexico, Haiti, Colombia, Peru, Panama, Bolivia, and Burma, among others.
Trump emphasized that the widespread production and trafficking of drugs from these nations fuels the crisis in the United States, worsening addiction and crime. The accusations are expected to trigger diplomatic tensions, particularly with countries like India and China, which reject such sweeping claims. The issue has drawn international attention to global narcotics control.
