New Delhi: Bankrupt Pakistan, a terror state that has been struggling with its economy for years now, has threatened India of suspending all bilateral agreements with India, including the critical India-Pakistan Non-Attack Agreement on Nuclear Installations, amidst rising tensions triggered by India’s decision to put the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT) in abeyance. Pakistan’s provocative move followed a warning from its ambassador to Russia Muhammad Khalid Jamali, who on May 4 stated that Islamabad “would use nuclear weapons” if India launched military action.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on the other hand, sent a strong message in response to what he called Pakistan’s “nuclear blackmail”. In his recent address to the nation, PM Modi declared a hardened stance and said, “India will not tolerate any nuclear blackmail. We have only kept in abeyance our operations against Pakistan; the future will depend on their behaviour. Operation Sindoor is now India’s new policy against terrorism— a new line has been drawn.”
