External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar delivered a scathing attack on Pakistan at the UN General Assembly, calling it the "epicentre of global terrorism." He stated that major international terrorist attacks are traced back to "that one country" with UN terrorist lists replete with Pakistani nationals. Jaishankar cited April's Pahalgam attack killing 26 tourists as recent cross-border barbarism, emphasizing India's right to defend against terrorism. He criticized nations openly declaring terrorism as state policy and demanded deeper international cooperation. The minister also declared the UN is in crisis, calling for Security Council reforms with expanded permanent and non-permanent membership. Jaishankar emphasized India's zero-tolerance for terrorism, robust border defense, and readiness to assume greater global responsibilities.
