Biden speaks with Tinubu over Binance executive, other issues

President Bola Tinubu has received a call from U.S. President Joe Biden. The conversation, which occurred around 4 pm Nigerian time on Tuesday, lasted approximately 30 minutes.

This was announced by the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Ambassador Yusuf Tuggar, during a briefing with State House correspondents.

The discussion focused on the recent release of Tigran Gambaryan, the Head of Finance Crime Compliance at Binance.

Tuggar stated, “The call addressed the collaboration between the two countries concerning law enforcement agencies, as well as the release of one of the suspects from the cryptocurrency exchange that you are all familiar with.”

“Mr President also thanked the US for the partnership and collaboration in numerous areas with regards to security in Africa and West Africa as as whole. President Biden assured President Tinubu that this is a partnership because the future of the world reside in Africa and as such, the partnership is important.

“The leaders also discussed the issue of permanent seat in the United Nations security Council and Biden assured the the united States is committed to seeing Africa having a permanent seat and does not see why one of those seats should belong to Nigeria.”
