Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said India's actions are negatively impacting millions in both countries after Canada confirmed withdrawing 41 diplomats from India. Canada called India's move unreasonable and escalatory following India's demand to reduce Canadian diplomatic presence for parity. The fallout stems from Trudeau publicly alleging India's role in a Sikh separatist leader's killing, which India rejected and accused Canada of harboring terrorists. Trudeau said the diplomat expulsion will delay visa services in India. India accused the diplomats of interference in internal affairs amidst the diplomatic row triggered by Trudeau's accusations over the separatist leader's killing, which India denies.
