India to World: Stand with Us Against Terrorism, Pressure Pakistan to Act
New Delhi (The Uttam Hindu)- Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said that we are taking our resolve to fight terrorism to the world. We want the world to come together to fight terrorism in all its forms and manifestations.
Meanwhile, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said on Thursday, "We hope that Turkey will ask Pakistan to stop its support to terrorism. Regarding the relations between Turkey and India, Randhir Jaiswal said that relations are built on the basis of sensitivity towards each other's concerns." Indian businessmen have also started boycotting Turkey's products like apples and marble. At the same time, educational institutions of India have also boycotted Turkey.
Randhir Jaiswal said that Pakistan has been carrying out terrorism against India for the last 40 years. Its actions need to be exposed. It should be held accountable for the terrorist attacks carried out against India. Therefore, seven delegations have been formed. Three delegations have left. This is a political mission. The spokesperson of the Ministry of External Affairs said that the delegations are going to 33 countries of the world. All the countries are our strong international partners. We have very good relations with them. Many of those countries are members of the Security Council or will become part of the Security Council in the coming days. Keeping all these things in mind, it was necessary that we go to these countries so that we can convey India's message on terrorism. On President Donald Trump taking credit for ending the war between India and Pakistan, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said, I had talked about this in my last briefing. I have nothing more to say. You are well aware of our position that any engagement between India and Pakistan should be bilateral. Dialogue and terrorism cannot go together. In case of terrorism, we are ready to discuss handing over to India those notorious terrorists whose list was given to Pakistan a few years ago. He said that I would like to emphasize that any bilateral discussion on Jammu and Kashmir will be only on the evacuation of Indian territory illegally occupied by Pakistan.
On the Turkiye case, Foreign Ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said that we hope that Turkiye will ask Pakistan to stop its support to cross-border terrorism and take action against the terrorist ecosystem that has existed in the country for decades. Relationships are built on sensitivity to each other's concerns. The Celebi case has been discussed with the Turkiye embassy here. But I understand that this particular decision was taken by the Civil Aviation Security.
