External Affairs Minister Jaishankar Slams UK Authorities for Failing to Protect Diplomats, says ‘Won’t Accept Differential Security Standards’

S Jaishankar: Days after a group of pro-Khalistani demonstrators vandalised the Indian High Commission in London and tore down a Tricolor from the premises, Union Foreign Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar criticised the UK government of failing to uphold security duties. “The obligation to provide protection for a diplomat to perform their duties and to guarantee that the embassy or high commission’s property is respected falls on the receiving country. These commitments weren’t kept. The British administration and I have discussed this,” S Jaishankar said.

India summoned British Deputy High Commissioner Christina Scott to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Afterwards, India summoned British Deputy High Commissioner Christina Scott to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MEA) on Sunday night to express its strong objection to the UK authorities. “Many nations treat it casually” (security). They have very different opinions about their own security and the security of other people, but I can assure you as foreign minister that we will not tolerate such unequal standards. The EAM made this statement while speaking at a Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) Yuva Samvada event in Bengaluru that was hosted by South MP Tejasvi Surya.
