Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly and Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Minister Marc Miller are providing “an update on the situation with India.”
This update comes after Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was asked Thursday for a status update on the Indian government giving Ottawa an Oct. 10 deadline to significantly reduce its diplomatic footprint.
As CTV News reported at the time, Canada was asked to see dozens of diplomats depart, to put the contingent of officials in India on part with the number of Indian diplomats in Canada.
Trudeau did not directly answer the question, saying instead that Joly would have more to say later.
“We have been continually engaged in diplomacy and in dialogue with the Indian government,” Trudeau said. “This is a serious matter that we are taking extremely seriously.”
Relations remain strained between the two countries, after Trudeau accused the Indian government of being involved in a murder on Canadian soil.
Following the press conference, officials from Global Affairs Canada, Immigration and Refugees and Citizenship Canada, and Public Safety will be holding a technical briefing with reporters.
