External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar delivered a stern message to Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski, urging Poland to display "zero-tolerance" for terrorism and avoid fueling terrorist infrastructure in India's neighborhood. The statement references Poland's October joint declaration with Pakistan mentioning Kashmir following Sikorski's Islamabad visit. Jaishankar also criticized "unfair and unjustified selective targeting" of India over Ukraine-Russia energy ties. Sikorski agreed about the unfairness regarding tariffs. The ministers discussed strengthening bilateral cooperation in trade, defense, and technology. India-Poland bilateral trade stands at $7 billion with 200 percent growth over a decade. Indian investments in Poland exceed $3 billion, creating numerous Polish employment opportunities. (PC: X)
