India-Canada row: If US has to choose between two friends, it will choose India, says former Pentagon official

A former Pentagon official Michael Rubin has said that if the United States has to choose between Canada and India, it will surely choose the latter as the relationship between the two countries is strategically “too important”. “Frankly, there’s a much greater danger for Canada than India. If Canada wants to pick a fight, it’s like an ant picking a fight against an elephant and the fact that matters is India is the world’s largest democracy,” he said.
