Jaishankar and Canadian Counterpart Discuss Bilateral Ties Amidst Diplomatic Tensions

During their meeting at the Munich Security Conference, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar and his Canadian counterpart Melanie Joly engaged in discussions regarding the current state of bilateral relations and global issues. The meeting took place amidst diplomatic strain between the two countries following the killing of Khalistani separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar on Canadian soil last year.

Both leaders exchanged views on the global situation and addressed pressing matters such as Russia’s illegal invasion of Ukraine. The dialogue between Jaishankar and Joly underscored the importance of candid discussions to address challenges in bilateral relations and navigate complex global dynamics effectively.
