US Vice President JD Vance has sparked controversy by blaming Britain's handling of a student's murder on the country's migrant crisis.
Vance claimed that the murder of 18-year-old Henry Nowak was a result of 'civilizational decline' caused by an 'invasion' of migrants.
The comments have been met with denunciation from British Prime Minister Keir Starmer's office, which rejected attempts to 'interfere in our democracy.'
Vance's remarks were made on the social media platform X, where he also called for 'righteous anger' in response to the case.
The case of Nowak, who was stabbed to death by a Sikh man in December, has become a lightning rod for right-wing anger around the world and sparked riots in Britain.
The US State Department has also weighed in on the case, condemning what it said was 'ideological conditioning and two-tiered policing' that led to the incident.
