New Delhi, May 19 (ANI): Singapore High Commissioner to India Simon Wong said that after receiving clearance from External Affairs Minister Jaishankar on Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal’s remarks they would wish to put an end to the episode and are heartened by EAM’s assurance. “This morning, we invited High Commissioner Kumaran to express concern that prominent figure in Delhi failed to ascertain facts before making claims. Following meeting, MEA spokesperson pointed Delhi CM has no competence to pronounce on COVID variant,” said Singapore High Commissioner to India. He added, “We were happy to see EAM Dr Jaishankar had put three points that Singapore and India are solid partners in the fight against COVID, that Delhi CM doesn't speak for India, and that the comments made were irresponsible.” “Exchanges between both countries' foreign ministers, I would say that we would wish to put an end to this episode because authorities representing Government of India had spoken and we are heartened by those assurances,” Simon Wong further said.
