The United States has provided intelligence support to Canada in the investigation into the killing of Sikh separatist Hardeep Singh Nijjar. While US intelligence agencies gave Canada context suggesting Indian involvement, intercepted communications of Indian diplomats in Canada revealing their role in the plot were collected by Canadian authorities. This revelation comes amid escalating tensions between Canada and India, with India strongly denying any involvement and labeling Canada as a safe haven for terrorists. Although US officials have encouraged India to cooperate with Canada’s probe, they have sought to avoid diplomatic discord as they aim to strengthen ties with India. Secretary of State Antony Blinken expressed deep concern and emphasized the importance of accountability in the case.
