It's really a no brainer why there are transgressions between the Meridian and Loka. At its core the Meridian are distrusting of the Corpus and their 'death merchant' mentality and they see the Perrin faction in the same light despite the latter's attempts to distance themselves from that and find peaceful business solutions, etc. This correlates well with the Loka's stance on things which is why they've made good allies in the past and present and since the Perrin most likely see the Meridian as an insurrance write-off because of all the anti-Corpus propaganda that's been drummed into Grineer minds since... well, ever, the Loka have little choice but to oppose their ally's greatest foe.

That said, remember that the Loka are opposed to the Meridian, not their mortal foes, which helps reinforce the theory that they probably wouldn't be enemies if it wasn't for the Perrin wanting them to show their loyalty. Of course, the Loka may also have an 'anti-cloning' ideal, which would also make sense. But it seems their greatest pet peeve is anything that's strictly non-human, aka Suda. Ironic because of all the syndicates it could be reasoned that Suda and her Hexis allies are the most compassionate, which is probably why the Meridian have no interest in meddling in their affairs. (Yet why the Meridian are not enemies against the 'burn everything!' Veil is beyond me...)
