External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar made it clear that any ceasefire or peace initiative with Pakistan will not change or weaken India’s tough stance on terrorism. He said that while India supports peace and stability in the region, this should not be misinterpreted as a willingness to ignore or tolerate terrorism.
He emphasized that terrorism remains a major obstacle to normalizing relations between the two countries. India expects Pakistan to take serious and credible action to dismantle terrorist infrastructure operating from its soil. Without such steps, any attempt at dialogue or peace will lack credibility.
Jaishankar’s comments underscore India’s long-standing position that meaningful dialogue with Pakistan is only possible if there is a demonstrable end to terror activities emanating from its territory. He reaffirmed that national security and counter-terrorism remain.
Jaishankar also highlighted that India’s approach is consistent and firm — peace is desirable, but not at the cost of national security. He stressed that the world today recognizes the seriousness of the threat posed by terrorism, and India will continue to lead efforts to counter it both regionally and globally.
