An Indian-American CEO of SardineAI, a US-based startup, said US is not doing anything to rescue its citizens stranded in Middle East and it's difficult to watch other countries like the UK, France, Italy, India repatriating their citizens while the US government abandoned their citizens. "I am a proud US citizen and founder of a successful startup that employs 94 employees in the US and 180+ employees globally. I was in Dubai on a business trip meeting with financial institutions to help them fight financial fraud in the region, but now I am stranded," Ranjan posted on X.
"After 4 days of adrenalin and constant fear, I feel demoralised and abandoned by our government. It’s difficult watching other countries – UK, Israel, Spain, Italy and India – repatriate their citizens or ensure that commercial flights continue operating to bring them home," the post added.
