In a post on X, he said, "Addressed the 32nd ASEAN Regional Forum (ARF) Ministerial Meeting, reaffirming India's steadfast commitment to the ARF process, the vibrancy of India's Act East Policy, and our vision for the wider Indo-Pacific. Articulated India's perspectives on navigating the evolving geopolitical landscape, including regional and global challenges. On terrorism, reiterated India's zero-tolerance approach and our right to defend our citizens against acts of terror. Underscored the pressing need for the international community to reject double standards, and to isolate and hold accountable those countries that shelter terrorists, provide them safe havens, or enable cross-border terrorism. Emphasized that the Pahalgam terror attack has undeniable linkages to Pakistan, and exposed Pakistan's pretence of calling for a so-called neutral investigation as a mere charade, given its lack of intent and sincerity to dismantle its terror infrastructure."
