Canada Changes Tune On 'Indian Interference' Ahead Of PM Carney's India Visit
Ottawa:
Authorities in Ottawa seem to be walking back on their allegations of Indian interference and transnational repression on Canadian soil before Prime Minister Mark Carney's high-profile visit to India aimed at deepening commercial ties with New Delhi after years of diplomatic distress. Before Carney's departure, senior government officials reportedly told the media that the Canadian PM would probably not be travelling to India if the government believed India was actively interfering in the Canadian democratic process.
"We have a mature, robust discussion with the Government of India on these issues, and we have robust safeguards in place to avoid foreign interference," CTV reported, quoting an official.
According to the report, the officials did not elaborate when Ottawa decided to change its stand but said there has been a "systematic engagement" with the Prime Minister Narendra Modi government in India, including at the senior officials' level, ministerial level, and leader level.
"These issues have been raised regularly, and we are confident that we have the basis for further productive discussion," a government official reportedly said.
A second official also stressed that Canada has "no tolerance" for foreign involvement in Canadian internal affairs. They said that if Ottawa believed that there was foreign interference by the Indian government were continuing, "I really don't think we'd be taking this trip."
