Diplomatic blow to India, as Joe Biden turns down Republic Day inviteBreaking

December 13, 2023

India has once again become a victim of the Narendra Modi-led government's extremist policies. The country faces a huge diplomatic defeat and has become a source of embarrassment. Following Canada, India's diplomatic relations with the United States have also faced a blow. Washington has also turned its back on India after Indian agencies’ plans to kill Gurpatwant Singh Pannu came to the fore. Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi invited US President Joe Biden to the Republic Day and Quad Summit in January 2024. The Quad Summit is essentially a network of establishing diplomatic relations between Australia, India, Japan, and the United States. The Modi government decided to invite US President Joe Biden as a special guest in an effort to appease him.

However, according to the US ambassador to India, Joe Biden will not join the Republic Day Parade. Previously, the Quad Summit faced delays when it was held in India. Before the January 2024 date, the announcement to hold the summit in May this year was also kept on hold. The US president's failure to attend India's Republic Day and Quad Summit was because of New Delhi’s involvement in conspiracies to kill Sikh leaders in the West. India is trying to restore its diplomatic relations with the United States after its conspiracy to kill Sikh leaders was exposed. After the failure of the G20 Summit, the cancellation of the Quad Summit next month is another major blow to India.
