JD Vance has finally broken his silence over whether his running mate Donald Trump won the 2020 election. After weeks of staying mum on the issue, Republican vice-presidential candidate JD Vance said on Wednesday (Oct 16) that he unequivocally believes Trump's claims that he did not lose the election.

Despite it being unequivocally proven that the 2020 election results were not rigged, Trump continues to reiterate false claims about voter fraud and that he won the election. His views are shared by millions of his hardline supporters, some of which in the aftermath of the election result declaration even rallied on Capitol Hill on Jan 6, 2021.

Vance, who was appearing at a campaign event in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, was asked by reporters if the former president lost to Joe Biden four years ago.

To this, Vance replied, "On the election of 2020, I've answered this question directly a million times. No! I think there are serious problems in 2020."

"So, did Donald Trump lose the election in 2020? Not by the words that I would use," he remarked.&nbsp;

This statement is in contrast to Vance's usual silence on the topic. The Republican vice-presidential nominee earlier made headlines when, during the debate with Democratic Party vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz, he sidestepped the question on 2020 election results and said he was focused on "the future".

To which his contender rebuked him,&nbsp;"That's a damning non-answer".

In Williamsport, Vance also defended his statement by saying he was not espousing "some crazy conspiracy theory" by arguing that Trump won. Instead, he blamed alleged online censorship by big tech companies for the election result.

JD Vance breaks silence, backs Trump's rigged election claims; alleges 'serious problems' in 2020 US elections

Indian foreign affairs ministry in a late-night statement on Wednesday (Oct 16) blasted Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau after he acknowledged that he had only "intelligence-based speculation" and no "hard evidentiary proof" against India over the death of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar.

Calling out Trudeau’s "cavalier attitude", India’s Ministry for External Affairs said, “What we have heard today only confirms what we have been saying consistently all along — Canada has presented us (India) no evidence whatsoever in support of the serious allegations that it has chosen to level against India and Indian diplomats."

New Delhi also held Trudeau responsible for severed diplomatic ties between the two nations. Following Trudeau’s allegations, India withdrew its top six diplomats from Ottawa and expelled the same number of Canadian diplomats from New Delhi.

"The responsibility for the damage that this cavalier behaviour has caused to India-Canada relations lies with Prime Minister Trudeau alone," the statement said.

<h2>Trudeau’s shocking admission</h2>

Earlier on Wednesday, while testifying before the Public Inquiry into Foreign Interference in Federal Electoral Processes and Democratic Institutions in Ottawa, Trudeau had admitted that his government did not have hard evidence against India.

He appeared before the committee after the latest charge that Indian diplomats were involved in collecting information and using criminal gangs to target members of the pro-Khalistan movement in Canada.

"Canada asked India to cooperate. Their (India) ask was for proof. We asked for Indian security agencies to investigate further and cooperate with us. Because at that point what we (Canada) had was intelligence," Trudeau said.

"Their [Indian government] ask was how much do you know? Give us the evidence you have on this and our response was well...it's within your security agencies, you should be looking into how much they know. You should be engaging," said Trudeau.

"At that point, it was primarily intelligence and not hard evidentiary proof. So we said, let's work together and look into your security services and maybe we can get that out," he added.

The Canadian PM also added that Indian diplomats were collecting information on Canadians and passing it to Indian gangster Lawrence Bishnoi.&nbsp;
