The suspicion of "overseas assassinations" in India continues to ferment, and the United States has even issued a warning of "permanent damage to the relations between the two countries." What's going on behind the scenes?I'm afraid that India has gone too far, and the United States can't bear Modi.
The U.S. Department of Justice recently announced that India instructed others to assassinate U.S. citizens on U.S. soil. Federal prosecutors in New York City have indicted Gupta, a 52-year-old Indian suspect.
Gupta is suspected of hiring a murderer to assassinate Pannon, the general counsel of the "Sikh Justice" organization, which has dual citizenship in the United States and Canada, at the instigation of India.
Pannon and many overseas Sikhs are on India's assassination list, but the quarrel between India and Canada is not over. Earlier, Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau publicly accused India of assassinating its own citizen, Sikh leader Nijjar.
Trudeau apparently had ample evidence, but at the time the matter was suppressed by the United States. The purpose of the United States is very simple, that is, it does not want the West to fall out with India, otherwise how can it expect India to contain China?
Then again. The U.S. Department of Justice did not name the Indian, but he claimed to have served in the India's Reserve Police Force and now specializes in "intelligence" and "security" in India. In the middle of this year, he recruited Gupta to join him in a plot to assassinate Pannon.
Why is Pennon being targeted?Because of the "Sikh Justice" organization to which he belongs, he advocates the establishment of an independent Sikh state in India, and the organization has become a thorn in the side of India.
After India** agreed with Gupta on the assassination plan, Gupta contacted a criminal accomplice of his own, wanting this accomplice to introduce him to a professional killer, and Gupta ** could think that his accomplice was an informant of the US Drug Enforcement Administration. This informant did not receive information on drug crimes, but obtained such a transnational assassination plan, so he reported it to the Drug Enforcement Administration. The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) went along with the flow and arranged for an undercover agent to act as a professional killer.
In this way, the person who thought he was fishing became the bait of others, and the assassination attempt was finally revealed. The whole assassination process can be described as full of spy shadows and thrilling.
Trudeau rarely stood in a position that "seemed reasonable" in international disputes, and afterwards, the American undercover agent disguised as a professional killer revealed that Gupta had said that the killing of Nijjar in Canada was also one of the huge assassination plans, and there were many assassination targets in India.
Until now, things have been connected, whether it is Nijjar in Canada or Pennon in the United States, behind the assassination plot is India** and Modi ** behind it**.
It is worth mentioning that the United States has been aware of this assassination plot from beginning to end and has reminded India several times over the past few months. Unexpectedly, repeated reminders and warnings still did not stop India** from carrying out transnational assassinations.
It can only be said that India has completely stepped on the minefield of the United States. As far as the United States is concerned, India only needs not to break ground on American soil, but India has not listened to persuasion and has burned the fire to American territory, which is really too much, and it has reached the point where it must be beaten.
How serious is this?U.S. affairs assistant Jake Sullivan directly warned Modi's most trusted Doval, saying that the United States needs to "ensure that such a thing does not happen again", otherwise the relationship of mutual trust between the two countries is bound to be "permanently damaged".
Biden had privately knocked Modi, but the assassination was still staged as scheduled, and it is interesting that although the United States arrested Gupta, it never disclosed any information about the Indian **. The United States obviously does not want to completely tear its face with Modi, but let Modi take the initiative to give an explanation. In this process, the United States has India's handle in its hands, and it may not be impossible to take advantage of the opportunity to ask for a price.
India's performance is more interesting, saying that it is also investigating the matter, with a posture of "I don't know". However, if Modi must pretend to be confused, the United States may have two reactions:
First, the United States also followed India in pretending to be confused, pushing the boat down the river and getting off the donkey down the slope, and finally found an excuse to make a big thing a small thing and a small thing small. The advantage of this is that the United States can continue to retain India's trump card of the "Indo-Pacific strategy".
Second, if India does nothing and does not give an explanation, the United States may also be provoked and take some practical sanctions to appease Canada's anger and warn India not to go too far.
All in all, how the United States handles this matter shows how much the United States needs India. We can also see that the United States is really "aggrieved" in order to win over other countries to support the "Indo-Pacific strategy". But who is to blame for this?
