INDIA ANNOUNCES CROSS BORDER TERRORISM IRRELEVENT TO THEIR FOREIGN POLICY

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Tuesday said that Pakistan’s core policy has been to “use cross-border terrorism to bring India to the table”, adding that India made that policy irrelevant by “not playing that game now”. In an interview with news agency ANI, Jaishankar said, “What Pakistan was trying to do, not now but over multiple decades, was really to use cross-border terrorism to bring India to the table. That, in essence, was its core policy. We have made that irrelevant by not playing that game now.”
