Canada Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Canada stands by the rule of law as the India-Canada diplomatic row reached a historic frost with India slamming Canada as a safe haven for terrorists and suspending visa services for all Canadians. The diplomatic crisis started after Canadian PM Trudeau on Monday alleged that India has a role in the killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar. India rejected the claim and several diplomatic steps were taken by both India and Canada. New Delhi on Thursday reiterated that though the Canadian PM went on to make allegations against India publicly, the Canada side never shared any specific input with India regarding its allegations.

00:00 As I said on Monday, there are credible reasons to believe that agents of the government of
00:11 India were involved in the killing of a Canadian on Canadian soil.
00:22 That is something of the utmost and foundational importance in a country of rule of law, in
00:30 a world where international rules-based order matters.
00:36 We have a rigorous and independent justice system and robust processes that will follow
00:45 their course.
00:48 We call upon the government of India to engage with us to move forward on getting to the
00:53 truth of this matter.
00:54 As a country of the rule of law, we have an obligation to ensure that those processes
01:02 unfold in a rigorous and independent manner, and that is what we are ensuring.
01:07 At the same time, we are ensuring that Canadians stay protected and that we stand up for the
01:15 international rules-based order.
01:18 That is something that we are doing, and it's something we are doing alongside our allies.
01:23 We're standing up for the rules-based order.
01:25 We're standing up for the rule of law.
01:27 We're highlighting how unacceptable it would be for any country to be involved in the killing
01:36 of a citizen on their own home soil, and that's something we will continue to stand for.
