Name and shame countries which support terrorism: India

February 03, 2016 13:36

India today said that countries which support terrorism must be named and shamed, asserting the need for united efforts to combat terror.

Foreign Secretary S Jaishankar while stating this at a security conference in a veiled reference to Pakistan also said that some countries believe that they can buy peace at home by supporting groups for terror outside, which he said, was "delusional". He did not name any country.

He said India will continue to be in touch with Pakistan with regard to the probe in the terror attack on an IAF base in Pathankot last month.

"Nations which support terrorism must be named and shamed," Jaishankar said at the Counter Terrorism Conference 2016 in Jaipur.

He called for fostering greater international cooperation to fight terrorism while pointing out that even so-called victims of terror do not cooperate on fighting terror on international stage.
