Shows what kind of leverage they have over these CREDIBLE allegations. If they had conclusive proof, it would have been at a different level already.
Yes, it is indeed funny. But the roles are opposite. It was Canada that tried to gas light it, and not India. Justin making public allegations and seeking the support of it‘s allies was the start of this gas lighting. Ottawa’s allies would have provided support, behind the scenes also. His public announcements in-fact have made a laughing stock out of Ottawa’s image. This shows the credibility of his credible allegations.
And investigation like this isn’t done through public announcement.
Basically, Justin was trying to gain political mileage and domestic votes through these allegations. The five eyes and any smart person saw through it and no one would allow a mockery of alliance like 5 eyes and NATO.
India knows, if it has done anything wrong. If you are in the clear then you can go full bore. Which is what India is going.
