The Western big powers like the US, Russia and the UK have also, when it came to the India-Canada standoff, chose not to take sides fearing diplomatic backlash from India
"We reject any attempt to portray the Implementation of parity as a violation of International norms," the Indian Ministry of External Affairs clarified.
Canadian Foreign Minister said, "...we have facilitated their safe departure from India. This means that our diplomats and their families have now left diplomatic immunities. Keep diplomats safe, no matter where they're from and where they're sent to. Immunities allow diplomats to do their work without fear of reprisal or arrests from the country they're in."
