Tulsi Gabbard confirmed as US Director of National Intelligence

Tulsi Gabbard has been confirmed as the US Director of National Intelligence after a final Senate vote, largely supported by Republican allies of Trump, including Elon Musk. Gabbard, the first Hindu US congresswoman, faced criticism for her pro-Russia stance. She has strongly condemned atrocities against Hindu minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh and has highlighted the importance of US-India relations.
