SCO meet: India’s stance against terrorism and Pahalgam attack was countered by Pakistan and…, even THIS country didn’t stand with Rajnath Singh
Not just at borders, but India also have to fight diplomatic battles with Pakistan and China. In the meeting of the Defence Ministers of Shanghai Cooperation Organisation in China, both China and Pakistan tried to play with India. However, failed miserably. Surprisingly, a country which calls itself India’s ally, also didn’t stand up for New Delhi.
India’s stance against terrorism and Pakistan-backed terrorists was countered by Pakistani Defence Minister Khawaja Asif’s question on Kulbhushan Jadhav, Jaffar Express and Balochistan. Pakistan calls Kulbhushan Jadhav an Indian spy, while India says that the Pakistani intelligence agency kidnapped him from Iran and forcibly kept him in captivity. When Rajnath Singh wanted to respond to this baseless claim of Pakistan, SCO Chairman China did not approve it. Not only this, the Pahalgam attack was not mentioned in the joint statement but Balochistan was named. Understanding this trick of China and Pakistan, Rajnath Singh did not sign the joint statement.
What was Russia’s stance?
Russia who has always termed itself as New Delhi’s friend also did not come ahead in India’s rescue. During this time, Russia also signed the joint statement and did not support India.
What did Pakistan minister say?
Khawaja Asif said, “I gave my speech at number five where I raised the issue of Jaffar Express attack and Kulbhushan Jadhav.’ Meanwhile, the Indian Defense Minister requested China, the chairman of the conference, to speak again. China rejected this request of India and cited the alleged tradition. He said that except India, the defense ministers of all other countries signed the joint statement.
Rajnath meets Chinese counterpart
Rajnath Singh held a meeting with his Chinese counterpart Admiral Dong Jun and stressed on border management and to have a permanent solution of border demarcation by rejuvenating the established mechanism on the issue.
