When it comes to terrorism, we will never look away, we will never compromise and we will never give up on our quest to ensure justice.
Jaishankar noted that India, along with like-minded partners, would stay committed and energetic in highlighting the existential challenges to global security and stability that terrorism poses. "We will shine the spotlight on this peril – and all those involved in nurturing and furthering it."
It is critical that all countries take a unified and unequivocal stance against terrorism. Terror is terror, and no amount of political spin will ever justify it, the minister stated.
