Trudeau stated that India committed a 'horrific mistake' by believing it could act on Canadian soil, which led to the deteriorating relationship between the two nations.
The assassination of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar raised serious diplomatic tensions, as Trudeau claimed there were credible allegations linking Indian agents to the crime.
The incident underscores a worrying trend of transnational repression by India, drawing parallels to tactics typically seen in authoritarian regimes, which has alarmed Western officials.
This situation has resulted in both countries expelling diplomats, revealing the fragility of international relations and raising broader concerns about the treatment of dissenters outside one's borders.
