First Lady all praise for Indian-American community leader during Silicon Valley trip

Bhutoria has been appreciated for his strong support to President Biden and the Democratic Party

US First Lady Dr. Jill Biden praised the role of an eminent Indian-American tech-entrepreneur and community leader in taking the message of the Biden administration to the public.

During a recent closed-door meeting with some top Democratic Party leaders in Silicon Valley, she, mentioned the name of an Indian-American entrepreneur from Silicon Valley, Ajay Jain Bhutoria, and his contributions.

She also recollected her visit to Bhutoria’s house during the presidential election campaign.

Jill is a community college educator, a military mother, a grandmother, and a bestselling author. She has also served as Second Lady of the United States from 2009–2017

Bhutoria, a finance committee member of the Democratic Party, said that President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken and their team are doing great work in leading and keeping the NATO allies together in support of Ukraine.

President Biden has united the world, he said.

“Russia is quite literally shut off from the global economy now. Major credit cards, including Visa and Mastercard transactions suspended, flights soon to be grounded, most Western airspace restricted, Western businesses pulled out, domestic businesses sanctioned. Russian banks are banned from SWIFT.

Bhutoria, a finance committee member of the Democratic Party, said that President Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken and their team are doing great work in leading and keeping the NATO allies together in support of Ukraine.

“The Russian Ruble and the Stock market continue to crash. Germany halted certification of the Nord Stream 2 gas pipeline, Russian athletes cannot compete in several sports activities,” he said.

“Swiss Bank putting sanctions and asset freeze applying to Russian President Vladimir Putin, Prime Minister Mikhail Mishustin and Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov…are definitely putting immense pressure on the Russian economy in both immediate short term and long term,” he added.

Bhutoria said the Ukrainian people are showing what it means to fight for their freedom. “Their bravery and heroism are inspiring. Moscow has to pay the price for its actions”.
