'Focus Is On Nijjar Probe': Canada On Resuming Trade Talks With India

in WORLD

India-Canada diplomatic relations hit a rockbottom after Justin Trudeau's remarks on the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar and now Canada has made it clear that its focus is only on probe and not on improving ties.

Canada’s Minister of Export Promotion, International Trade and Economic Development Mary Ng said Canadian government is focused on getting India to cooperate in the investigation into the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar rather than on resuming trade talks.

Speaking to the media on the margins of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation meet in San Francisco, Mary Ng said, “Right now, the focus for Canada is to let the work of the investigation proceed,” according to the outlet CBC News.
