Kurt Campbell, US coordinator for the Indo-Pacific region
Washington DC (US) – ‘Every society and country faces some difficulties and challenges. This includes us (the United States). No country is perfect. All have some shortcomings. In such a case, we (the United States) cannot advise India about human rights’, Kurt Campbell, US coordinator for the Indo-Pacific region, said at the US National Security Council. He made this statement in response to a question asked about the Human Rights Commission of India.
Kurt Campbell further said,
1. China is an important issue in India-US relations. However, both the countries are not collaborating just over this issue, but they also want to work together on many other aspects.
2. India has adopted a stance based on its principles in the Russia-Ukraine war. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken a clear stand on the situation in Ukraine and the plight of its citizens. India is worried about this war and believes that Russia’s role is reprehensible.
Don’t think US can or should lecture India any other country on democracy, human rights: Kurt Campbell
