US President Donald Trump has sparked controversy after posting a letter on Truth Social describing countries including India and China as “hellholes” while criticising birthright citizenship in the United States. The post also alleged that immigrants, particularly from India and China, dominate hiring in California’s tech sector, limiting opportunities for others, though no evidence was provided. His remarks come amid ongoing debates over immigration policy and citizenship laws in the US. The comments have drawn criticism for their tone and generalisations, potentially straining diplomatic sentiment. The episode highlights how immigration rhetoric remains a politically charged issue ahead of key policy discussions and elections.
