A week after the Delhi bomb blast, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar reiterated that India has ‘zero tolerance for terrorism’ and there can be no white washing for terrorism.
Speaking at the SCO Heads of Government Summit in Moscow, Jaishankar said, “It is imperative that the world display zero tolerance towards terrorism in all its forms and manifestations. There can be no justification, no looking away and no whitewashing. As India has demonstrated, we have the right to defend our people against terrorism and will exercise it.”
Earlier on Monday, Jaishankar met Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov in Moscow, while Russian Security Council Secretary Nikolai Patrushev held talks with National Security Adviser Ajit Doval in New Delhi. The meetings come as both sides prepare for President Vladimir Putin’s expected visit to India on 4–5 December.
