I have to wonder what back-channel diplomacy was involved in this invite. Canada clearly dithered for a long time; the other world leaders who were invited got their invites weeks ago. Only yesterday it was taken for granted by Indian media that Modi had been snubbed. India’s main opposition party had already started attacking him for diplomatic failures, while his supporters were trying to save face by arguing that he was unlikely to go even if invited.
Personally, I don’t think Modi should go, invite or not. Maybe send Jaishankar or someone else.
These countries (not pointing to Canada) are openly funding the terror state next door. Why pretend that everything is business as usual by attending yet another pointless meeting?
But knowing Modi’s penchant for being in front of camera and playing to domestic audience, he is most likely going.
Fascinating seeing as just a day ago word was India wasn’t invited:

I’d be curious who pressured who, or what sort of back channel chatter there was.
My guess is that the China concerns are deeply grievous, especially given the very mixed signals from America.
