AAMER MADHANI

Aamer Madhani is a journalist who has written articles for Yahoo News. He previously worked as a White House correspondent for the Associated Press (AP), where he covered former President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike Pence. In this role, Madhani reported on various topics including foreign policy, national security, and politics. According to an AP fact check article published by Yahoo News in April 2021, Madhani has been known to misrepresent the amount of aid provided by the Obama administration to Ukraine and gloss over delays in helping Ukraine during Trump's term. Madhani also made a suspect claim that all of Ukraine’s weapons now in use came from the Trump administration. This statement is not true, as it oversimplifies the situation and ignores previous aid provided by other administrations.
