The United States has expressed disappointment with India’s response to Canada’s ongoing investigation into the killing of Sikh separatist leader Hardeep Singh Nijjar, which occurred last year. U.S. officials have called for cooperation between the two nations to ensure the matter is resolved transparently.
On Tuesday, the U.S. State Department emphasized the gravity of the situation. State Department spokesperson Matthew Miller noted the seriousness of the allegations, which have stirred diplomatic tensions between India and Canada. He stressed the need for India to take these concerns seriously, stating, “The allegations are extremely serious and need to be addressed with the appropriate level of attention.”
Miller went on to express dissatisfaction with India’s current stance, highlighting the country’s reluctance to collaborate with Canadian authorities on the investigation. “We wanted to see the government of India cooperate with Canada in its investigation. Unfortunately, that has not been the course they’ve chosen,” he added.
This diplomatic dispute between India and Canada has attracted significant international attention, with the U.S. urging both nations to work together to resolve the case. The tensions stem from the unresolved murder of Nijjar, a prominent figure in the Sikh separatist movement. Canada has accused India of being involved in the killing, a claim India denies, further straining relations between the two countries.
