Former US President Donald Trump has been charged with conspiracy to defraud the US, obstruction of an official proceeding, and conspiracy against the rights of citizens in an effort to overturn 2020 election result.

The unsealed indictment says the former US president “was determined to stay in power” and “spread lies” saying he had won in order to overturn the election.

Trump has been summoned to appear in a Washington DC court on Thursday at 16:00 local time.
