India and Canada have reset diplomatic ties after a 2-year freeze, with PM Modi attending the G7 Summit in Canada and meeting new Canadian PM Mark Carney. High commissioners will return, and trade talks resume. Carney distanced himself from pro-Khalistan groups, unlike predecessor Trudeau. Simultaneously, India declined Donald Trump’s invite, citing unease over Trump’s lunch with Pakistan Army chief Asim Munir and repeated claims of mediating an India-Pakistan ceasefire. Trump’s tariff threats and attempts to hyphenate India-Pakistan have further strained US-India relations. Canada now appears more aligned with Indian interests than the unpredictable US stance under Trump. (PC: India Today)
