‘Actions Will Have Consequences’: S Jaishankar Sends Strong Message To Pak Over Terrorism

S Jaishankar, the Minister for External Affairs (MEA), was all guns blazing at Pakistan at the 79th session of the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) over the cross-border terrorism and sent a clear message in the strongest-ever tone saying that the ill acts of Pakistan will meet by consequences. While addressing the UN General Assembly, Jaishankar blew away Pakistan , for its statement on the same podium, saying that their malicious act will never-ever succeed.

On Saturday at the 79th session of the UNGA, EAM Dr S Jaishankar appeared to be in no mood to spare Pakistan for their act to endorse and promote cross-border terrorism. He even took account of the statement made by Pakistan on the global stage for invoking and bringing up the Kashmir issue again a day before.  

S Jaishankar Corners Pakistan At UNGA, Calls For Vacation Of Illegally Occupied PoK

The EAM started by saying, “We heard some bizarre assertions from this very forum yesterday. Let me make India's position very clear - Pakistan 's policy of cross-border terrorism will never succeed. And it can have no expectation of impunity. On the contrary, actions will certainly have consequences.” 

"The issue to be resolved between us is only the vacation of illegally occupied Indian territory by Pakistan and of course, abandonment of Pakistan 's long-standing attachment to terrorism," the EAM strongly raised the issue of the Pakistan-Occupied Kashmir (PoK) and asked for the vacation of the region. 

Terrorism Is Antithetical To Everything: EAM

At the UNGA, EAM Dr S Jaishankar, while taking examples from the Russia-Ukraine war and the conflict in Gaza, indirectly showed a mirror to those developed countries of the world, who endorse different stands on violence in different parts of the world, for their various political reasons. He said, “The world cannot be fatalistic about the continuation of violence on a large scale, no more than be impervious to its broader consequences. Whether it is the war in Ukraine or the conflict in Gaza, the international community seeks urgent solutions. These sentiments must be acknowledged and acted upon.” 

"Terrorism is antithetical to everything that the world stands for. All its forms and manifestations must be resolutely opposed. The sanctioning of global terrorists by the United Nations should also not be impeded for political reasons," he added.

World Witnessed Pakistan Getting Exposed

While putting up his point on various issues at the UNGA, Dr S Jaishankar, categorically exposed Pakistan , on the world stage over its long-term association with terrorism and violence. He clearly mentioned that while some countries in the world are left behind due to certain circumstances, Pakistan is one of the countries in the world which consciously chose its disaster. 

The EAM said, “Many countries get left behind due to circumstances beyond their control but some make conscious choices with disastrous consequences. A premier example is our neighbour Pakistan . Unfortunately, their misdeeds affect others as well, especially the neighbourhood. When this polity instils such fanaticism among its people. Its GDP can only be measured in terms of radicalisation and its exports in the form of terrorism.” 

"Today, we see the ills it sought to visit on others consume its own society. It can't blame the world. This is only karma. A dysfunctional nation coveting the lands of others must be exposed and must be countered," he asserted.
