Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has termed India second largest foreign threat to democracy and responded to this development by emphasizing his government’s grave concern regarding foreign interference.
The Kashmir Media Service reported that the Canadian Premier in a statement revealed that India would be second largest threat to democracy in Canada. Recent findings from a high-level Canadian parliamentary committee have placed India as the “second biggest foreign threat” to Canada’s democracy, following China.
Canada’s National Security and Intelligence Committee of Parliamentarians (NSICOP), comprising members with top security clearances from both the House of Commons and the Senate, unveiled the report during a period of strained India-Canada relations.
The release of this report coincides with heightened tensions between the two nations, worsened by Trudeau’s prior allegations accusing Indian government agents of involvement in the killing of Khalistani terrorist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. New Delhi promptly dismissed these accusations as baseless, as mentioned in the report.
