New Delhi, India: India and Canada on Monday reached a string of agreements, including on critical mineral cooperation and a "landmark" uranium supply deal for nuclear power, the countries' leaders said in New Delhi.
The pacts, which also covered technology and promoting the use of renewable energy, were announced after Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Canadian counterpart Mark Carney hailed a fresh start in the relationship between their nations.
"Our ties have seen a new energy, mutual trust, and positivity," Modi said.
Ties effectively collapsed in 2023 after Ottawa accused New Delhi of orchestrating a deadly campaign against Sikh activists in Canada, accusations India rejected.
Carney's visit -- his first to India since taking office last year -- is not only aimed to reset strained ties, but also to push efforts to diversify trade beyond the United States.
