Former US President and Republican candidate in the November 5 presidential election, Donald Trump, has cancelled a television interview on CBS channel.
CBS programme, ’60 Minutes’, disclosed this in a statement on its X handle on Wednesday.
The campaign spokesman of the Republican, Steven Cheung, denied that the former President had agreed to participate in the interview, saying there were initial discussions but nothing was ever scheduled or locked in.
The programme said the Democratic candidate Kamala Harris would appear as planned in Monday’s broadcast and that the original invitation to Trump stands.
60 Minutes also said it has been having interviews with presidential candidates for over 50 years.
However, Cheung said that CBS had insisted on live fact-checking for this year’s programme, which he described as unprecedented.
Harris and Trump are running against each other in the US presidential election on November 5.
Following a televised debate hosted by the US channel ABC on September 10, Harris called for a second debate, while Trump said he did not intend to participate in further debates.
