Vice President Kamala Harris<\/a> sidestepped a question on Friday regarding the indictment of former President Trump, but the president of Zambia chose to address the issue.<\/p>\n

Harris and Zambian<\/a> President Hakainde Hichilema held a joint press conference on Friday as the vice president begins wrapping up her travel on the African continent.<\/p>\n

The pair were asked for their reactions to news that the 2024 Republican presidential candidate was indicted<\/u><\/a> by a Manhattan grand jury on Thursday after a years-long investigation by the Manhattan District Attorney\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n

“I am not going to comment on an ongoing criminal case as it relates to the former president,” Harris told the reporter.<\/p>\n

However, Hichilema\u00a0took the question and attempted to explain his feelings on the matter from the perspective of the Zambian government<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“The indictment of President Trump \u2014 what does that mean to the rule of law? Let’s remove names from your question,” Hichilema\u00a0told the reporter. “Let’s put what we decided we would do to govern ourselves in an orderly manner. [We] passed our constitutions \u2014 bedrock law. Then, secondary laws, other regulations create a platform or framework around which we agreed either as Americans or as Zambians to govern ourselves and so to live within those confines.”<\/p>\n

“And when there’s transgression against law it, does not matter who is involved. I think that is what the rule of law means. This is universal,” he continued.<\/p>\n

Hichilema\u00a0went on to compare the Trump indictment<\/a> and partisan tensions to corruption in his own nation.<\/p>\n

“And here, Vice President, we have a scenario now when we fight against corruption which has taken away resources from children and the sick \u2014 sometimes names are thrown into it and perceptions are created that are totally inappropriate,” Hichilema\u00a0said. “Because transgressions against the law, if you take what belongs to the public, you have offended the law and the name does not matter.”<\/p>\n

Trump was indicted as part of the Manhattan District Attorney’s Office’s years-long investigation, possibly for hush money payments.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg<\/a> has been investigating Trump for hush money payments made leading up to the 2016 presidential election.\u00a0<\/p>\n

These include the $130,000 payment made to adult film actress Stormy Daniels and the $150,000 payment made to former Playboy model Karen McDougal,<\/u><\/a> Fox News Digital has learned.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Hush money payments made<\/u><\/a> to both McDougal and Daniels were revealed and reported by Fox News in 2018. Those payments had been investigated by the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York and by the Federal Election Commission.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Federal prosecutors in the Southern District of New York opted out of charging Trump related to the Daniels payment in 2019, even as former Trump attorney Michael Cohen implicated him as part of his plea deal. The FEC also tossed its investigation into the matter in 2021.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
