1. Wall Street Journal recently published a PROPAGANDA AD demanding U.S. to implement economic & visa sanctions on 11 GOI officials under “Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act”.
Absolute desperation in United States to make India toe the line and submit to west’s demand.
2. The Global Magnitsky Act of 2016 along with Executive Order 13818 authorizes U.S. gov to sanction foreign gov officials worldwide who have been deemed serious human rights offenders.
These sanction can freeze offenders’ assets and block them from entering United States.
3. Why the ad?
Well an U.S. NGO named “Frontiers of Freedom” who say they work to protecting rights & freedoms of individuals has submitted a petition to U.S. Departments of State and Treasury.
“to enact sanctions against 11 Indian officials for alleged human rights abuses”
4. India wants to monitor, question and arrest Devas co-founder Ramachandran Viswanathan via “Mutual Legal Assistance Treaty in Criminal Matters” between U.S. and India.
Indian officials have also asked Interpol to issue“red notice” worldwide to arrest Viswanathan.
5. Petitioner says that “The actions of autocratic Indian regime led by Prime Minister Modi are an assault on Mr Viswanathan and the rule of law and the rights and freedoms granted to every American.”
So WSJ goes ahead and publishes a propaganda ad maligning India.
6. Such malafide attacks will increase against India with each step Modi govt takes in India’s national interest & path of independent foreign policy.
Sometimes these attacks will come directly from global superpower sometimes via its subordinate countries.
Brace yourself! 🙏
