India told the UN Security Council that the perpetrators of the 26/11 heinous Mumbai terror attacks are protected by Pakistan, adding that most terrorist attacks across the world have some form of origin.
India hit back at Pakistan after Islamabad’s envoy to the UN Munir Akram raised the issue of Jammu and Kashmir during UNSC’s open debate on the safety of civilians in armed conflict: ‘War in cities – safety of civilians in urban settings’ .
“Member States are well aware that Pakistan has an established history of harboring, aiding and actively supporting terrorists. India’s Permanent Mission to the United Nations, UN Security Council Adviser R. Madhu Sudan said that it is a globally recognized country as a sponsor of terrorism and has an outrageous record of hosting a large number of terrorists. As has happened in Pakistan, he said.
His statement came days after the US siege of a synagogue in Texas, which ended with the killing of Malik Faisal Akram, a British hostage taker of Pakistani heritage.
After India’s envoy TS Tirumurti made a national statement in the debate, Madhu Sudan said that he is again constrained to take the floor of the UNSC, simply because the representative of Pakistan has made frivolous remarks against his Pavlovian and my country. elected to this prestigious council. While his statement deserves our collective contempt, it is important for me to set the record straight. He said that when the council is discussing the security of civilians in the meeting, the biggest threat to civilians comes from terrorists.
“As we mentioned earlier, the perpetrators of the 2008 Mumbai terror attack are protected by the state they represent, Madhu Sudan said, referring to the Pakistani envoy. Hafiz Saeed-led Jamaat-ud- Dawa (JUD) is the flagship organization of Lashkar-e-Taiba (LeT) which is responsible for carrying out the Mumbai terror attacks. Saeed is in Pakistan’s Kot Lakhpat Jail, Lahore for his sentence in terrorism financing cases. serving his sentence.
In his remarks earlier in the debate, Tirumurti said any debate on the safety of civilians in urban areas would be incomplete without taking into account the genocide perpetrated by terrorist forces, especially those supported by state actors. The cowardly terrorist attack in Mumbai in 2008 that resulted in the death of 166 innocent civilians from 15 countries is still a terrifying reminder to the entire international community. Tirumurti said that in recent memory, the Mumbai terrorist attacks symbolize the sheer scale and scope of the urban warfare that we had to wage against jihadi terrorists, when our police personnel laid down their lives for the security of the city. Was lying
Criticizing Pakistan, India told the council that this is not the first time that Islamabad’s envoy to the United Nations has misused the platforms provided by the world organization to propagate false and malicious propaganda against it.
Akram in his remarks also referred to the abrogation of Article 370, which focused almost entirely on India. India has repeatedly told Pakistan that Jammu and Kashmir “was, is and always will be” and will remain an integral part of the country. It also advised Pakistan to accept the reality and stop all anti-India propaganda.
Madhu Sudan said that Pakistan’s envoys are trying in vain to divert the world’s attention from the pathetic condition of their country, where terrorists get free passes, while the lives of common people, especially minorities, are turned upside down. , Clearly stating India’s position, Madhu Sudan said that the entire Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh were always an integral and indivisible part of India, irrespective of “belief or greed” as the representative of Pakistan.
It also includes those areas which are under illegal occupation of Pakistan. “We call upon Pakistan to immediately vacate all areas under its illegal occupation,” Madhu Sudan said. He said India seeks normal neighborly relations with all countries including Pakistan and is committed to resolve outstanding issues bilaterally and peacefully in accordance with the Simla Agreement and the Lahore Declaration.
However, any meaningful dialogue can take place in an environment free of terror, hostility and violence. It is the responsibility of Pakistan to create such a conducive environment. Madhu Sudan said till then India will continue to take firm and decisive steps to respond to cross-border terrorism.
