“Terrorist Country Asking Me”: Jaishankar’s Sharp Reply to Pakistani Journalist’s Terrorism Question

Indian External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar delivered a sharp response to a Pakistani journalist who questioned India about terrorism. Jaishankar reportedly challenged the premise of the question by highlighting Pakistan’s alleged links to militant groups and its record of cross-border violence. The exchange underscored the deep hostility between New Delhi and Islamabad, where terrorism remains one of the most contentious issues. Both countries continue to accuse each other of supporting destabilizing activities while diplomatic relations remain strained and tense overall.
