On the phone today, His Highness @MohamedBinZayed and I spoke about the current situation in Israel. We expressed our deep concern and discussed the need to protect civilian life. We also spoke about India and the importance of upholding – and respecting – the rule of law.

In a fresh provocation, Canadian PM Justin Trudeau said he spoke to UAE's President about the India-Canada diplomatic row and upholding the 'rule of law'. This is amid a snowballing crisis over Canada's allegations linking Indian agents to the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. Trudeau also discussed the Israel-Hamas conflict in the same call. Earlier, Trudeau raised the row with UK PM Rishi Sunak, who hoped for de-escalation while reaffirming respect for the 'rule of law'. Tensions escalated after Trudeau claimed Canada was pursuing credible allegations tying Indian agents to Nijjar's murder. India called the allegations absurd and motivated.
