US Reacts After Diplomat Summoned Over Arvind Kejriwal's Arrest; Germany Exudes Confidence In Indian Legal System

 


While India called on US diplomats to protest, the US stood by its comments on Arvind Kejriwal's arrest. The country is now also proposing to put money into the banking system, which would "make it harder for voters to influence the next election."


Washington said Wednesday that it supports fair, transparent and timely legislation and "believes no one will oppose it."


"We continue to closely monitor these actions, including the arrest of Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal," said US State Department spokesman Matthew Miller.


Miller responded to questions from the State Department regarding a phone call made by Gloria Berbena, India's head of mission in New Delhi, earlier that day and the reserve release of the Congress party currency bank.


"We also know that the Congress party has claimed that the tax authorities have closed some of their bank accounts, which will make it difficult for them to effectively fight elections in the first place. All issues.

"Regarding your first question, I will not mention any private diplomatic conversations but actually what we say in public is little First is what I said here and we encourage it to be honest, transparent, legal in a timely manner. I believe that no one should oppose this.


State Department officials called the head of the delegation, Gloria Berbena, at her office in South Delhi and protested the statements made by US State Department officials regarding Kejriwal's arrest. The meeting lasted more than 30 minutes.


A US official said Washington "supports Prime Minister Kejriwal in taking legal action in a fair, transparent and timely manner."


Police Department arrests Kejriwal in a financial case related to GST policy 'scam'. Earlier, the Indian Ministry of Foreign Affairs had stated that Delhi strongly objected to the statement made by the US State Department spokesperson regarding some laws in India.

The Ministry said, "In diplomacy, the country must respect the sovereignty and internal affairs of other countries. This responsibility also applies to other democracies. Otherwise, it will set a bad precedent."

"The legal system in India is based on independent judiciary and is committed to objectives and timely results. Criticisms of this are not correct." MEA said.

Germany has full confidence in the Indian constitution

The next day, India summoned the German ambassador and described the comments on Kejriwal's arrest as a "negative impact". A German foreign correspondent praised India's determination and unwavering confidence.
