Trump denied the accusations against him due to rising egg prices

US President Donald Trump has rejected accusations that the price of chicken eggs has increased significantly during his rule in the country. The corresponding statement was made by No on March 2 in his address.

"We were in charge for only four weeks, and in the first week I was accused of egg prices. I said, I just got to work. They said the price of eggs has increased by about 250%, and we can't buy them. Everyone was going crazy," Trump said.

He noted that he had just taken office and could not influence the situation in any way.

CNN reported on January 14 that U.S. citizens are facing a shortage of eggs due to avian flu. It was specified that the restoration of stability in the food market in the country may take from six to nine months. In addition, the shortage has led to higher prices for eggs. On February 7, it became known that amid the shortage, stores in the United States imposed restrictions on the purchase of eggs.

On March 19, White House press Secretary Caroline Leavitt accused the administration of former US President Joe Biden of killing almost 8 million chickens across the country before his departure.
