Moscow/Tokyo/Abu Dhabi: Diplomatic leadership from Russia, Japan and United Arab Emirates on Friday came forward to join hands with New Delhi against all forms of terrorism as the Indian multi-party Parliamentary delegation held wide-ranging discussion on counter-terrorism combat and briefed them on Operation Sindoor.
“#TeamIndia sends a strong and united message on combating terrorism,” External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, who is on a three-nation tour of Europe, said in a post on X as the three delegations exchanged views on furthering cooperation in counter-terrorism and combating radicalism, especially after the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack that saw 26 people dead.
India embarked on a global outreach with its seven multi-party delegations travelling to 33 global capitals to meet the international community — political leadership, media, senior officials, and members of the diplomatic corps — on Pakistan’s designs and India’s response to terror and sharing information about Operation Sindoor.
Moscow reiterated its decisive commitment to an uncompromising joint fight with New Delhi against all forms of terrorism as the Indian multi-party Parliamentary delegation held wide-ranging discussion on counter-terrorism combat and briefed the Russian side on Operation Sindoor.
