India on Thursday strongly criticised Pakistan over its alleged role in global terrorism, with External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar speaking on the urgent need to curb the financing and support of terror groups.
Speaking at the 80th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA), the EAM said that while nations must assert their rights, they must also confront threats posed by terrorism.
“Countering terrorism is a particular priority. India has confronted this challenge since Independence, having a neighbour that is an epicentre for global terrorism. For decades now, major attacks are traced back to that country. Such actions must be unequivocally condemned. The financing of terrorism must be choked,” Jaishankar stated.
He stressed that India continues to face the persistent threat of cross-border terrorism, which has affected its citizens for decades, and called for stronger international cooperation to tackle this menace.
Jaishankar’s remarks come post the deadly Pahalgam attack and the consequent response India had to it termed ' Operation Sindoor.'
