In a significant diplomatic achievement, Congress MP and former UN diplomat Shashi Tharoor led an all-party Indian delegation to Bogotá, Colombia, successfully influencing a shift in Colombia's stance from pro-Pakistan to pro-India. The delegation's mission was to brief Colombian officials on India's counterterrorism efforts, notably Operation Sindoor, and to reaffirm India's position on the suspended Indus Waters Treaty. Tharoor emphasized India's generosity under the treaty and highlighted Pakistan's misuse of the agreement. This outreach resulted in Colombia expressing support for India's counterterrorism initiatives and acknowledging India's concerns regarding Pakistan's actions. The visit underscores India's growing diplomatic influence and its ability to garner international support on critical issues. (PC: News 18)
