New Delhi – Jaishankar revealed that both nations have maintained communication and expressed hope for a mutually agreeable resolution to the conflict. Simultaneously, he emphasised the importance of recognising that “sovereignty and sensitivity” should be reciprocal in nature. These remarks were made during an interactive session at a media event.

“I feel that there is room for diplomacy here. I know that my counterpart in Canada has also expressed the same position. So, we have been in touch,” he said.

“My hope certainly would be that we find a way. Sovereignty and sensitivity cannot be one-way streets. They may have their concerns. I have never ever with any country said that I am not willing to talk to them about their legitimate concerns,” he said.
