- Опубліковано 22 тра 2024
- Eric Garcetti, currently serving as the U.S. Ambassador to India, stands out as the sole U.S. envoy to have toured 22 states of India within just 12 months since his appointment in March 2023.
He also served as the Mayor of Los Angeles, where he held the position of City Council President, becoming one of the city’s youngest mayors. Garcetti announced he would not run for president in 2020, opting to finish his term as mayor.
In the latest episode of the ANI Podcast with Smita Prakash, he discusses the U.S. stance on the Khalistan issue and addresses whether Washington is ‘protecting’ Gurpatwant Singh Pannun, a designated terrorist in India, or not.
Ambassador Eric also speaks on why the U.S. keeps ‘meddling’ in India’s internal affairs, whether it’s the Delhi CM being arrested by a Central agency or the Congress party’s account being frozen over income tax ‘evasion.’
He defends his comments on the CAA implementation in India and talks about the lengthy waiting procedure for getting a Visitor Visa for the U.S.
He also discusses the rise in attacks on Indian students in the U.S. and delves into topics such as India-U.S. ties, military exercises between both countries. Additionally, he shares his experience on the India tour, Bollywood, and Cricket.

More like a PR platform actually. Moreover, diplomats are trained to rephrase every question thrown at them to their liking.
That's what diplomats do.
@@sanaksanandan No, they dont. Look at S. Jaishankar, the best EAM ever! Although, he may have been tight-lipped had he still been a diplomat, so I am glad that he is a minister & not a useless diplomat!
Yes he is with mask😮
*What about Julian Assange and Edward Snowden's Freedom of Speech* ?

What did Nijjar do, who did he kill in India. No made up stories, concrete facts. Why were Indian government with the help of police killed generation of Sikhs.
@@harsingh3702 Proof 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Julian assange used stolen property of USA govt, what did Pannu do ? Fighting for freedom that’s it.
So u do agree it's wrong and voices have been suppressed?

Very good to see that world know real history and truth about indian democracy
She shoupd have asked him in which court of law did USA convict Osama Bin Laden before violating a sovereign country and killing him? Amd why shouldn't India do the same?
Ye logo ko ase question aate hi nahi sirf sunna aata hai gulam mansikta
Absolutely. They Don't have any video showing Osama bin laden killing Americans or beheading personally. What Osama was a ideological figure who motivate radicals do terrorism just like panuu and nijjar.
osama acted, didn't just bark like Pannu
@@harshsrivastava9841 do you have direct video evidence? Ans is no..CIA only had some digital communication suggesting osama might be actor. But do osama personally conducted each and every attack? No.. did he personally given cash for terrorist? No..all were digital transaction..and if USA ask questions about our evidence then we also have the right asking them about their evidence against osama bin laden.
@@ranadeepjash1150 you are correct. even if they had all evidences, according to the "crossing red line" rhetoric given here by the ambassador, why did they violate the sovereignty of Pakistan to gun down Bin Laden instead of using diplomatic channel?
Arnab is the best person to interview such a cunning US ambassador.
😂😂
Bhai for to gadi Women empowerment par hi atak jati is envoy ki😂
Arnab should start such podcast channel like Smita
It will be very successful
But I think Arnab has gone soft and not interested to compete
He is like enjoying retirement and running successful business of Republic News
He enjoy salary of 1crore+ per month
😂😂
True 😂
No country should interfere in India's Internal matters
A very quixotic ask... instead we should interfere in other countries a much as they do in our.
Exactly.. do u want India to be North Korea😂😂 stupid ppl and statements’internal matter’..
if india govt has problem they should comment on other countries matter!!
@@momobhai3792
100% agree with you.
@@momobhai3792 Ofcourse if u invest good money on bad causes it isn't so difficult
I hope Mr Ambassador reads the comments to know on ground anger and distrust a common indian has for US. Big bully Sam.
Why is Julian Assange going to be convicted in America if there is freedom of speech?
*Correct, What about Julian Assange and Edward Snowden's Freedom of Speech* ?

They will pull out national security card.

So u agree India is wrong too?
I hope Mr Ambassador reads these comments to know on ground distrust and anger within common Indians for US. No wonder Indians consider Russia to be thrir friend and not uncle Sam.
He knows all this. He's been sent to do a specific job and he's doing it.
We think the US admin, only if it knows more about India, will modify its stance. Its time we rethink that presumption, definitely with this lot in power.
He's cunning and we shouldn't trust him at all

No really, he exposed Smita's hatred for all Sikhs living in USA and Canada.
@@harsingh3702 lol! Why would anyone have hatred for all Sikhs? Khalistanis are different from Sikhs. Every community has some radical extremists, but that doesn’t mean all people in that community are radical!!
@@harsingh3702 really how 🤔🤨
It's easy to say what Garcetti said at @9:05 about differences in freedom of speech in US v. India. What happened right after 911 ... when the USA was under threat from Islamic terrorism, was freedom of speech protected with the same zeal that he is now talking with? Remember the "see something say something" policy and how people were persecuted by the State just because someone called the FBI line - perhaps because of a bias that they harbored? It is easy to sit on a high horse and pretend to take the moral high ground when it suits you.
Double standards is the word we are all looking for.
Here this man IS aware of khangress and kejriwals wrongdoings but still is hanging on to his version. This is the height of hypocrisy
😂I wasted 56 minutes of my internet watching this interview.😂 Never trust the U S A.
❤ savage comment
Thank you for commenting I just started watching,so you saved my time 😂
his & pappus 🗣️ speech have a lot in common 💨💨💨💨💨💨
Everytime the ambassador says we do not arrest people for just saying something, Smita should ask why the courts there are after Trump for tweeting something 😂
There is evidence that he was involved in jan 6 attack. Do your research.
*What Free Speech* ??
*You Even Block Comments on UA-cam* !!!
How smartly he uses his words to condescend and even insult Indians, saving his country against any allegations
It's very noticeable contrary to what he was thinking while saying those things. He will face consequences with time, it's slow but he should have learned a bit more about the country he was appointed ambassador of, This country occasionally forgets but remembers quickly.
That's what a diplomat's do and well he is American diplomat they believed they are always right
@@aryanrathod4064 everyone believes they are right.. the thing different about western diplomats is that they believe they are superior, and hence their words hold more value than others no matter how wrong they might be in their own life.
Just read the charges and allegations against this Garcetti in his home country, and here he is telling the rule of law to us, they are trained to kill their self consciousness to become western diplomats, manufactured and fake, just a mouthpiece to mimic like a genuine person.
Smita was abusing all the Sikhs living USA and Canada. He corrected her that most of them are good people. Indians hate Sikhs and try to label them as Khalistani. Sikhs should start labeling Hindus.
@@arofficial3344 This country kills its own people and now they are going after the opposition leaders.
This guy being US citizen thinks he has natural responsibility to interfere in others internal affairs. Bharat should teach the west a lesson. GOI should be more proactive. India is a not a pushover. We should make the world bend when we speak.
💯
Unrealistic. India is a low per capita income country dependent on the West for investment. Until India becomes middle income country, we cannot armtwist most countries

Sorry Smitha but it should have been an Interview with Palaki Sharma to bring the best value for the money.
I understand your point but Interview is more of a serious conversation. Whereas podcast is a more of a less serious conversation.
So Smita could be a good interviewer but this was podcast. So conversation has to be less serious.
Tell me if you have different opinions.
Indian journos should learn to ask questions about other nations’ domestic issues as well. I wonder why Smita didn’t ask/tell about how shoddy US elections were and that they should learn from Indian CEC how to conduct a federal election
Not surprised on that one. She gets all the interesting people but her research is always superficial.
Atleast someone said it
The anchor is not pressing him on why his govt has double standards on dealings with accusations against the Indian govt with accusations against Pannu.
On Pannu he says there’s no strong evidence but when involves the indian govt, he says indian govt must co operate fully.
His take on Pannu gave away the entire interview. Saved my precious time...😊
The jock of Century:- Terrorism has no religion 😂😂
😂 He should focus on the elections in his own country. Biden is going to have a humiliating defeat.
Not so sure about that, system works for Democrats, American elections are more fixed than pakistani elections

What was the lie 🤔
@@user-yv2qx5gs2j all his answers except for wanting a stronger relationship with India (i.e we want India to fight Chinese for us)
@@badam323 obviously everyone in geopolitics is going ahead with each other for personal gains. Usa need india To fight china . India needs usa to fight china. To do that and fight same enemy there needs to be a stronger connection and understanding. So what is wrong in that. I dont understand your point
@@user-yv2qx5gs2j yes a stronger understanding needed but that doesn't go well with attempts to undermine and weaken India at the same time, all with a colonial mindset. They have to choose one. Only a win-win relationship can be a basis for a stronger connection.
Eric Garcetti is not a terrible person per se and he probably understands India quite a lot BUT even he unfortunately does not understand the basic Indian psyche. He said the US also has flaws & he's open to criticism but he simply does not comprehend that the Indian government is not interested in preaching or policing the US and trusts them to fix whatever they think is wrong AND India wishes to not be preached and policed by the US either(at least not openly and DEFINITELY not during the election season!). The US cannot do anything to Pannu "because of US free speech law"(but even remotely or jokingly threatening the US president would get one sent to guantanamo???) FINE SO WHY COMMENT ON INDIAN LAWS LIKE CAA, FARM LAWS AND ED'S ARREST OF CORRUPT CM'S??? India is very happy to do business with the US but the relations will ALWAYS have some hiccups as long as the US does not understand basic respect of Indian psyche and culture-DO NOT MEDDLE IN INTERNAL INDIAN AFFAIRS AS INDIA IS AN INDEPENDENT COUNTRY WHO CAN DECIDE WHAT IS RIGHT AND WRONG AND CAN AMEND OR FIX THINGS IF AND WHEN SHE WANTS USING HER OWN LAWS WITHIN HER OWN ASSEMBLY IN HER OWN TIME! US is a friend and should avoid being a "know it all, know it better, my way or the highway" MASTER, India is not pakistan who suckled on US tits for decades!
8:25 so he's saying Americans Citizens are allowed to issue death threats, call for murder, instigate violence, and be a threat to any countries national sovereignty, and there's nothing anyone can do about it if the person doesn't physically carry out the action.
Did Osama fly the planes into the towers? Didn't stop them going half way round the world to take him out. Suppose the laws were different then?
Reminds me of the days terrorists across the border were labelled 'freedom fighters'. Nothing could be done then, till it became a problem to them. Sadly, it sounds like their attitudes have not changed.
US also have CAA for minorities Christian and Jews from another country , so why US pointing us about discrimination for Muslim ...😂😂

We hope Trump, the main opposition leader, gets a free n fair trial in America. Hope the government is not persecuting their main opposition before the elections. so many indictments, Courts banning him from running state elections, putting over $300 million fine etc would have rung alarm bells in most countries!

Is he saying, threatening violence on others publicly is not a crime in America? It’s free speech?
Well sir when in India their is not even a single person arrested for 1984 sikh genocide so don't consider india a beacon of hope. Usa is a real democracy not a dictator ship
Mr Ambassador: why no action on arson attack on Indian Consulate in SF, more than 6 months after the attack?
*What about the Freedom of Speech of Edward Snowden ?*
Americans want that in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan religious minorities should be persecuted. They do not believe in humanitarian help for them. That is why they are against CAA which is unacceptable to human value.

Spot on....👍🏻👍🏻
In raw term "A sword for hire" like Pakistan had been in past.
While the United States represents about 4.2 percent of the world's population, it houses around 20 percent of the world's prisoners. Corrections (which includes prisons, jails, probation, and parole) cost around $74 billion in 2007 as per US BJS . USA is the leaing jailer of the world. Jails are overflowing that's why verbal violence and theft cases up to 900 USD is not attended.
This guy is full of double standards. Once he says they can't take action against Pannu because there is no action but at the same time they are blaming India for pannu's assassination, which never happened. Why do they want to arrest Nikhil Sharma? Why is US supporting pakistan and no word about their election process. The whole world has lost hope with US because of its double standards. It is a shameless democracy which doesn't value relationships.
Mr Ambassador: I’ll-informed comments on internal affairs of India is unwarranted, and certainly not a sign of “most consequential relationship “.
Pannu is US citizen. India has no business.
@@subhrajitgupta5535 thanks for this earth-shaking revelation.
Smitha, you should have asked, " What they would do if the US President was threatened " ?
You really think she doesn't know all these questions, she has been a journalist for a long long time, it's actually why she doesn't ask them, is it some kind of shoddy business happening here?
I mean if it's for free then it's twice as bad atleast.
Reporter : *Sir! Your pant zip is open.*
Eric : We have a strong relationship with India and we are working very closely.
Yes true, he's reiterating the same thing
The war on Ukraine was not unwarranted? Why is NATO expanding? Why are you arming NATO nations with border level missiles? ANSWERS Please?

US arrogance vis-a-vis India will only diminish once India attain science and technology independence and has 20 plus trillion economy.
Preach.
For that we need to kick out freebie Dakus like khujliwal and pappu and adopt ruthless capitalism otherwise it’s just a. Pipe dream Indians need to swallow the fact that the dream of a 50 trillion economy requires sacrifices and we need to rid ourselves of our obsession with free bijli paani and sasta cylinder

While freedom of speech is indeed a fundamental right in the United States, it's crucial to recognize that this right comes with responsibilities, especially in matters pertaining to international relations and security. Threats of violence or harm, whether directed at individuals, organizations, or nations, cannot be justified under the guise of freedom of speech. Such actions undermine peace, stability, and cooperation among nations.

@@Artrader_em8koIt is called Bigotry of low expectations.. we don't punish children for their mistakes, coz they are children. Right now Izlam is treated with kid gloves
@@krishnaats7141 You have a point but I feel it’s also because of the ‘Left and Islamist’ alliance which helps both ideologies in the global geopolitics. Though far left countries( communists) do not tolerate Islamists in their countries nor do Islamic countries tolerate Leftists in their countries, but in every democratic country , Islam n leftists team up together and they are the largest vote bank for left.
They call themselves left liberals when neither left( communist) countries nor Islamic countries are liberal in any way nor do they practice free speech there!
Same vote bank politics with Democrats in US or Labour Party in UK or Left parties in India. Odd alliance because they the two ideologies contradict each other! Type ‘ Left n Islamist alliance’ n you can read on it.
@@Artrader_em8ko Infact they do not contradict each other. Both ideologies are totalitarian. Neither of them have any respect for local culture, civilization, ethos. Both of them hate existing value systems, neither of them respect borders and boundaries. Both hate democratic secular principles that India or west has. So they make good fellows in these countries
And in countries like Iran and China, they don't have anyone else to hate on, so they hate each other and eliminate each other.
And in India speciafically, there is another group of people that keep hating on us, those are new converts evangelist Christians. They hate us coz we are infidels. So they join up with the other entities to keep diminishing us. Especially by hiding their identity and taking away benefits of all affirmative action we have at the same time sh!tting on their former identity of being a Hindu. Even they have contributed to specific levels of friction and most of the time you find their views and allied with IslamoLeft. So much so that we had to rename that - ChrislamoLeft.
Smita Prakash must have asked him about Julian Assange. Asked about his Freedom of speech and expression and right to life. These questions must be asked in every platform in US. India must reply in the exact same way.

1. Given India's strong stance against terrorism and separatism, how does the US justify its perceived leniency or lack of action towards individuals or groups advocating for Khalistan, especially those believed to be operating from American soil?
2. What measures is the US government taking to prevent any activities or funding originating from within its borders that support separatist movements like Khalistan, which pose a threat to India's sovereignty and security?
3. How does the US plan to cooperate with India in combating the resurgence of Khalistani extremism, particularly in light of recent incidents and intelligence reports suggesting external support?
4. Does the US recognize the gravity of the Khalistan issue and its potential to destabilize the region? If so, what concrete steps is the US taking to address this concern and support India's efforts in maintaining peace and security?
5. Can the US assure India that it will not provide refuge or sanctuary to individuals or organizations involved in promoting violence or terrorism under the pretext of freedom of speech or expression?
6. In light of the historical ties between certain elements in the US and Khalistani extremists, how does the US plan to ensure that its policies and actions do not inadvertently support or embolden such groups?
7. What diplomatic initiatives is the US undertaking to address India's concerns regarding external support for Khalistani separatism, including engaging with countries or entities known to have links with these groups?
Ask him about CIA and Ford Foundation or Rock fellow institutes interference in India’s democracy ……what about CIA funding Kejriwal?
I understand Smita Mam's predicament as the guy is the ambassador so a certain decorum has to be maintained but the indian in me feels that she could have pushed the ambassador a little more on the Khalistan issue & the interference of US in Indian domestic matters
Don't worry about what is happening. Fortunately Modi and Jaishankar are there.
Ilaj hoga. He will leave India after proper Treatment.
Smita you should have asked him about David Headly , Is that not a red line done by a US citizen and why US protecting him
so disappointed by ANI - why didnt you ask the ambassador about ""Lautenberg Amendment"" on his unwanted wisdom
Hi ma'am, he's dodging the questions...hiding behind freedom of speech and ongoing investigation.
US have shown love for India's minority in gulf😂😂 whole world knows that
Mr Gaar Shetti, Mr Pannu, a US citizen from US soil has claimed he gave 16 million $ to one of the politicians in Bharat.
Is this not election interference?
We expect u to track this terror funding.
Why are u harboring terrorists in US?
It is maker of them isis made by them
Not if it fits your agenda.
@@krishnaats7141 Then u will not have your agenda either. U will get a return gift.
@@jaibholenath6900 I am saying they will not call it interference because controlling India is part of their agenda
why should they do it. It is your country and your politician. If ccp funds some politician in India, it is India's need and responsibility to find out which politician recieved funding and other details (not ccp's responsibility).
Eric Garcetti was a mayor of my adjacent city. I have seen how people were dead against him!
He had a very poor track record…He is a political appointee in India and not a career diplomat.
Anyway, no point in discussing Eric’s bad record as a mayor here.
In recent days, there has been lot of bad publicity of Biden administration in India and within Indian diaspora in US, due to Pannun statements and Biden administration commenting on Kejariwal’s arrest.
Eric came to your show, to directly put US side in front of the Indian public and try to improve bad public image.
I look at Pannun issue and US commenting in India’s internal matter in a different way. I will explain this in coming paragraphs.
But before that let me tell why Eric is sent to India.
I agree with what Eric said in the interview that when he was appointed as US ambassador to India, Biden told him that India is most important country for US.
This is half truth…What Biden meant was, India is most important country for US…BUT it’s government should be under US control.
US will not tolerate India’s independent stand in the international affairs. This is all happening because of Modi. Hence Biden cannot accept Modi’s third term in power.
Pull down modi and US will be a good friend to India again. This is the only mission for which Eric is sent to India.
When Eric’s nomination for ambassador’s position was proposed, at that time we Indians living in US knew, this man is being sent to create internal trouble in India.
Before being appointed as ambassador, he made very offensive comments about India’s freedom of speech, democracy, religious freedom etc. That is how we Indian Americans knew, this man is being sent by Biden to create trouble and possibly a REGIME CHANGE.
And he is doing exactly the same as we can see.
Now let’s talk about US support to Khalistan, Pannun and support to Kejariwal.
First of all what Eric said about freedom of speech in America is a big BS.
What Eric said in your interview that US does not prosecute anyone just because they said something but takes action only if that person indulge in the crime…
If what Eric said is true then…
My simple question to him is, can he prove how many detainees in Guantanamo Bay prison were really terrorist?
Majority of them were arrested just because they had some alleged connection with the wanted terrorists. They had done nothing wrong to US or did not act against US interests. But still they were arrested, tortured inhumanly.
And to avoid US laws on prisoner torture, they were kept in Guantanamo Bay, so that US laws does not apply.
Where was US freedom of speech for these innocent people, who were arrested, tortured just out of SPECULATION?
Has Eric forgotten all this recent US history? Or he has memory loss like his boss, Biden? Or he thinks, Indians are fools?
Back to Khalistan, Pannun and US support to Kejariwal…
I had studied Kejariwal 10 years back in details. I looked at how he was NOMINATED for a seat in IIT kharakpur, how he started two NGO’s, who funded them, how he did not give accounts of these NGO’s and when questions were asked about the accounts, he closed both the NGO’s.
Based on this analysis, 10 years back, I had said this man is a fraud, dishonest and a foreign agent.
All my predictions made 10 years back are coming true.
Pannun is a declared terrorist in India. India has enough evidence to tag him as a terrorist but still US is giving him safe house and protecting him.
There are lots of other Khalistani eliments getting safe heaven in US. We see their nefarious activities in the Gurudwara here in US. I do not want to list them here.
The point is, still US is not acting against such terrorists and in fact protecting them saying, they have not acted wrong.
My worry is, US should learn from its past mistakes. Terrorists cannot be friend of anyone.
US supported jihad in Afghanistan to defeat USSR… but then same terrorists and same nations did 9/11 attacks. US must learn from the past mistakes.
What is the guarantee that someday, Khalistani, Pakistani, ISI, other terrorists groups unite and attack US mainland again?
Hence US should stop hobnobbing with terrorists by labeling them as good terrorists and bad terrorists.
Kejariwal is a nurtured asset of deep state actors.
With his arrest, there is a danger that he will spill all the beans to the Indian investigation agencies.
This will give advantage to India to expose these deep state actors at some international forum.
Hence US is playing this dirty game to cover its tracks.
On one hand, Pannun who is a CIA asset, made an allegation that he paid 16M USD to Kejariwal. This is a BURN NOTICE for Kejariwal.
Allegation from a declared terrorist will destroy Kejariwal’s credibility completely. And politically he would be finished. So this is BURN NOTICE for Kejariwal.
On the other side, US made a statement to treat Kejariwal fairly and quickly. And said, US is watching…
This is done to put India under international pressure, so that India should not say anything against the deep state actors at the international forum.
Condemn India internationally for its poor law & order, corrupt judiciary & religious intolerance, so that India will come under international pressure & will not be able to say anything against deep state actors. Use this as a quid pro quo to silence India…
US must be looking at other options to replace Kejariwal. One of such person is already in UK another one is in US… let’s see who gets selected?
This is the real game.
I think Modi knew what was coming on him, if he arrested Kejariwal.
It is a very big political risk during elections. There is a possibility that some judge who is also influenced by deep state actors, might grant bail to Kejariwal….
And this will be politically suicidal for Modi. But still he gave a green signal for the arrest because I think, he must have got some intel for disrupting general elections in India by such foreign agents.
Hence he must have taken this political risk.
Let’s see what happens.
fantastic analysis! people should read this. Also, Julian Assange and Edward Snowden were given inhumane treatments...US didn't give any freedom of press to these people. I mean look at the way there's a witchunt against Trump with bullshit court cases being filed with openly biased judges. The political system there have become a danger to themselves and now they're here lecturing others!
Just like Gandhi, Nehru and Congress in 1947, Kejriwal and AAP were the next tools to control India when they realised Rahul and Congress is failing. But all their plans are looking like they failed.
Free speech is almost absolute. India has no substance
Honestly everyone knows that there have been numerous instances in past where American establishment says something about idealism and their actions are totally opposite. So they can't be trusted merely on words but only actions should be seen. That being said I'm not against America of course but working constructively where both nations GENUINELY BENEFIT is VERY IMPORTANT. But numerous examples which he speaks but American action have been opposite are as follows:
1) In Pannu case America is being so protective to him whereas if anyone like a normal citizen would talk about putting a bomb in airport or flight then he'll be grounded, jailed or atleast arrested and throughly investigated.
9:30: USA is allowing people to come in freely, where did the law go there?
14:53: how about quesim sulemani, countless drone strikes killing citizen of other nations. Isn't that exactly opposite of what he said and we know for a fact that they have done it. (I'm Not defending terrorists like bin Laden but CIA has killed numerous people) CIA has killed a lot of Indian scientist and nuclear scientists too.
He's talking about religions minorities wrt CAA. I wonder Do they even know what CAA is about? Its about protecting religious minorities in other nations, esp Islamic nations. Why would India accept a Muslim from an "Islamic nations" a nation which is made for Muslims and no one else?? The only reason they could be giving statements like these is to maintain that interest or descending voices or have that anger sentiment in some people alive I think.
Remember don't listen to words, see the actions but it's very important to work with Americans and ensure that things are done that's beneficial to both the countries.
This guy is a snake beware guys.
Edward Snowden & Julian Assange laughing in the closet😅😅😅... what a great example for Freedom of speech!!!!
What b.s.!
Smitaji,
Thanks a lot for taking this interview.
I have seen Indian Diplomats grilled by Western media with utmost care to insult and without having proper knowledge of subject and that to in the higest of the tone. You have asked question (with dicency and pleasent tone)-that Indians are concerned about but escaped with intangeble answer. ( it alwasy interest American vest in ).
What make me feel impressed in this interview , you never pitch question in high tone , harsh voice inspite of the fact that individual has given death threats to our country Prime minister( Joke -freedom of speech and vibrant democracy)
My take away is just as situation changes there are few fellow who wish to be your friends and dump you when not needed. Because cunning people interest is in his benefit not with relationship.
regards,
sanjay
If there is ever a human equivalent of 'sly fox', it is this man. Everything about him- body language, tone, smile, words are so un-authentic
I loved the way Smita homed in on Khalistanis. Bravo. He tried to avoid it
Something about the dude doesn't sit well with me.
It’s called too glib but he’s a prick. Very typical. And totally untrustworthy
I know what that something is that’s not sitting well with you!. Eric Garcetti is a glib, supercilious, fake Californian that is simply intolerable fellow.
he's a 🐍. A product of the backstabbing shitshow that is US politics these days
His smile clearly tells don’t trust me , I’m Mr fake.
What…did he say ‘just threats are not serious until those goes into action’? Has he lost it! Watch at 11.05 of the time.
But just an allegation, not even a threat or any action carried, to assassinate Pannu is taken seriously? Clear double standards of USA…once again.
HE Eric Garcetti should be reminded that that the waiting list, for biometrics collection, and the interview at the Embassy, is an year long - FOR A TOURIST VISA.
I applied in Jan 2024, and I've got dates in Jan 2025.
So much for strengthening America - India ties.
America is the most dangerous place to go in recent times. You are right these make money like that
millions croosing US southern border everyday, greatest nation on earth. more provinces less population more resources and freedom.
To be on safe side, avoid discussion on culture, politics etc in public places
Lol, also about justice, constitutional rights 😄
Would Garcetti care to comment on CIA role in the assassinations of our PM Lal Bahadur Shastry and nuclear scientist Homi Bhabha?
Ask him about Lautenberg Amendment, what does he think about that? Isnt CAA basically a parallel law to it?
If freedom of intimidation through speech is not crime then 99% of any sought of crime will not be crime until it is committed.
Is any far left( communist) country liberal?? Is any Islamic country liberal?? Do they have Free speech?? But in all democracies these two ideologies join hands together and call themselves’ leftist liberals’😅
No left( communist) country tolerates Islamists and no Islamic country tolerates Leftists! That’s the irony which many people do not realise n fall for the one sided narrative!
Type’ left n Islamists alliance’ n understand the deeper geopolitics!!
He advocates for the perspective that addressing Pannu's actions might not be necessary at this point, as he primarily espouses opinions rather than engaging in concrete actions. However, it's worth contemplating how differently such rhetoric would be received if it originated from within India discussing potential threats to American airlines. While it's important to respect the legal frameworks of different nations, it's also essential to ensure consistency and avoid double standards when engaging in discussions about the internal affairs of other countries.
If this podcast was done by the US Ambassador to make Indians feel better about the relationship with the US, it’s done exactly the opposite.
Gaar Shetti why does Xinese get Visa in 2 days while we get in 2 years sometimes more
Is any far left( communist) country liberal?? Is any Islamic country liberal?? Do they have Free speech?? But in all democracies these two ideologies join hands together and call themselves’ leftist liberals’😅
No left( communist) country tolerates Islamists and no Islamic country tolerates Leftists! That’s the irony which many people do not realise n fall for the one sided narrative!
Type’ left n Islamists alliance’ n understand the deeper geopolitics!!
Coz obvious reasons.. Neo colonialism
You should've asked him tough question & grilled more him on tht
Garcetti and the US state department need to be reminded of the Specter and Lautenberg amendments that allow certain people belonging to certain religions and regions were given fast track to citizenship. How is the CAA different than those amendments?
everything he say sound so fake and indecent
Talking publically about another country's internal matters is unfriendly posture whereas seeking clarification privately is concern of a friend!
Here we go round the mulberry bush …. Typical non straight talk lot of bs round and round - pretence of straight talk
Is any far left( communist) country liberal?? Is any Islamic country liberal?? Do they have Free speech?? But in all democracies these two ideologies join hands together and call themselves’ leftist liberals’😅
No left( communist) country tolerates Islamists and no Islamic country tolerates Leftists! That’s the irony which many people do not realise n fall for the one sided narrative!
Type’ left n Islamists alliance’ n understand the deeper geopolitics!!
In his home state of California, the San Francisco Indian consulate was lit on fire. He is delusional if he thinks that khalistan is just rhetoric and not action.
Real enemy of hindu and india is This USA 🇺🇸proved by ambassador confession😂❤❤❤❤
So many skeletons buried in their own closets....
Nice...Please make more of these.
This is just for the ever non believers of India’s rise at the national and international levels is the fact admitted by the American ambassador that G20 held in India is ‘the most successful meeting ever in the history’.
He is clever! (Good and bad thing)
Smita should get a briefing from intelligence agency of the country on getting out information and journalism.
You should have asked him about Hawaii being the next location for Samosa Caucus 3.0
What about iftari held for kashmiri anti india individual's by this guy recently St his embassy. Is usa trying to ignite the separatist and terrorism movment in kashmir to destabilise and weaken india so india becomes a pet of usa or is it a political interference strategy to weaken modi prior the elections ?
How about usa advising the world specialy under democrates to empress iligale migrants with open arms and then when india is fast trekking citizenship to such persicuted non Muslims fron fantic Islamic countries then what is the issue with usa . Ofcourse we belive and rightly so that no Muslim was persicuted relgiouly in thease 3 fantic Islamic countries thus there are no illigale Muslim migrants in india who have come hear because of relgiouse persecution from these 3 Islamic countries , so what is the problem with usa if we are finalt after 75 years giving huge relief to such religiously persicuted migrants from named 3 country by fast trekking their citizen ship . And remember its only fast trekking as they wear going to get citizenship anyways because of our commitments to them during partition in 1947 but it would have taken probebly another 75 years till their decendents saw light at the end of the long dark tunnel after 150 years. Caa is only shortening that long dark tunal by few decades for this persicuted people by Islamic fantics in the named 3 countries so what is usa which run by leftists parasites right now has problem with CAA?
