US State Department reiterated that violence is never an acceptable form of protest and criticised the pro-Khalistanis. “The US government condemned the recent violent incidents that have taken place during protests at Indian diplomatic facilities in the US. The Department supports the first amendment rights of protestors to engage in free speech. However, violence or threat of violence unacceptable,” said US Department of State Principal Deputy Spokesperson Vedant Patel. “Consistent with our Vienna convention obligations, Department is committed to taking all appropriate steps, including coordination with federal state and local law enforcement authorities to protect the safety and security of these facilities and the diplomatic individuals who work within them as well,” he added.
