New Delhi: External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar came down heavily on Pakistan on the issue of cross border terrorism at the 18th Non-Alignment Movement summit in Azerbaijan today.
Dr Jaishankar in his address at the NAM's ministerial meeting denounced all forms terrorism and called it a threat to international peace and development.
"The growing linkages between terrorist groups and cross-border operations including terror financing networks, and the spread of hateful ideologies through modern communication technologies have left no country untouched by this scourge," External Affairs Minister said.
"We must reform and revitalise the current arrangements and working methods of our Movement, to allow us to pursue a positive and forward-looking agenda. At the same time, we must guard against attempts to divide us and to misuse multilateral platforms to further narrow interests," he added.
