Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Thursday that Canada remains committed to building closer ties with India, even amid "credible allegations" of India's involvement in a Canadian citizen's killing. Speaking in Montreal, Trudeau stated that constructive engagement with rising global power India is extremely important. However, he added Canada needs India's cooperation in getting all facts on the death of Hardeep Singh Nijjar, purportedly killed by Indian agents per Canadian agencies. Trudeau said he received assurances from the U.S. that Secretary Blinken would raise the matter with India's foreign minister. Trudeau affirmed Canada's approach is thoughtful, responsible and anchored in rule of law.
