U.S. seeks to defuse spat with India

[KingMamba]

NY could have $9 as the minimum wage.

Actually it will have $8 by this December 31 and increase to $9 by December 2015.

Your meaningless calculations are off, by the way, because wage workers in america are entitled to overtime rate after 40 hours per week. She was probably working longer than 8 hours per day as well. The sad part about all this is that I wish your workers had the same labor protections that ours do. Even more tragic is that our companies exploit your workers by paying them less than they deserve and pretend they're doing you a favor, and use that against us to make us sign away all the protections the generations before us worked hard to gain

Only if she is working on the books, I doubt she was punching in and out. It was at most a verbal agreement and a he said she said dispute which could have easily been settled in a civil court without an arrest lol.

If US chooses to take this further, so would India.

Please do, the US has already refused to apologies or drop charges against the Indian official.
What will India do next? Clearly removing barricades and revoking diplomatic privileges is not having the desired effect.

US Diplomats are also violated Indian Laws, We can treat them the same way you did to us.

The crime and the reason for spat is that the maid family is shifted to USA and GOI wants to know what info. the maid has given to USA.

Diplomacy is a two way protocol and any barbaric acts done on one side can be reciprocated in the same manner.

The thing is if India starts the same treatment to USA here there are lot of countries which are angry with USA ready to follow. This is election time USA better realize this and should stop its pathetic arrogance. Nothing USA can do to India , you have tried sanctions, etc....etc....., never worked.

Your arrogance is because of your economy and within a decade or two that arrogance will go down along with your economy.

All I heard from India is talk. Its time for some action, go ahead and arrest some US diplomats in India.

Khobragade is no longer in an Indian embassy or consulate but at India's Permanent U.N. mission. If the Secretary-General refuses her services - a distinct possibility, since she's accused of human trafficking and financial fraud and the paperwork supports it - he can kick her out: it's Indian soil but U.N. property. If she won't leave, the S-G can request local law enforcement - probably the NYPD rather than U.S. marshals - invade the mission to remove her. If anybody in the Indian mission interferes he can fire them. If India objects India can be sanctioned under the Charter -

Yeah, this situation can get worse.

Human trafficking and financial fraud ? wanna link me an article which blames her for that ? only thing she is charged for is Visa falsification which according to India , thats the maids and problem of US not the diplomat ... as the maid applied for the Visa application all alone during the interview ...

Talk ? you do realize your diplomats don't have any more rights than tourists ? they have lost each and every privilege they were enjoying .. you folks want something done...stand under the sun in the queue with the rest of us normal folks .

And btw....those folks cant leave the country and nor can they import anything

India will refuse to deliver mangos to the US embassy. Then they will shutdown unintelligible Indian callcenter where an Indian dude with thick accent tells you his name is Bob. They will then threaten to stop writing the world's most retarded computer code for Americans. Did I miss anything??

NO they can't , how will those superior American diplomats ever be treated like normal human beings . they will probably not leave the country until it is re issued and they are given special privilages

India trump up charge to mistreat US diplomat will pay a heavy price. Obama won't let something happen to any diplomat with his watch for a 2nd time without forcefully retaliated.

I don't think the US is losing any sleep over this.

They will be treated like normal human beings? What's wrong with that? How do 'NORMAL HUMAN BEINGS' get treated in India?

 

[armchairPrivate]

There is nothing to be defused. The Indians is in the wrong !00000%.
