The meeting between the two top diplomats was scheduled well before the Canadian crisis began. On the other hand, the US is urging India to cooperate in the Canadian investigation into the killing of Khalistani extremist Hardeep Singh Nijjar in British Columbia in June. Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has alleged the involvement of Indian government agents in Nijjar's murder.
