The United States is concerned about Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau s comments about India s potential involvement in the murder of a Khalistani activist. Secretary of State Antony Blinken called for India to cooperate with Canada s investigation into the killing, stating that accountability is important. The US has been consulting and coordinating closely with Canada on this matter. India has rejected Canada s allegations, calling them absurd and motivated. The diplomatic dispute has put President Joe Biden in a difficult position as he tries to strengthen ties with both India and Canada.
