New Delhi, January 18
India today emphasised terrorism as being the most pervasive threat to international security. The reference was again in the direction of Pakistan with Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar carrying forward the message delivered yesterday by the PM at the inauguration of the Second Raisina Dialogue.
The FS went into depths on the major foreign policy points raised by the PM. “India is a founder member of SAARC, an organisation that has been made ineffective due to the insecurity of one member,” he said.
India and China have seen major tensions define relationship in past year and the FS made a pitch today for China to show more ‘sensitivity’ to India’s concerns. — TNS
