India delivers strong message to Pakistan at SCO; Jaishankar condemns terrorism
terrorism and extremism are unlikely to encourage trade, energy flows, and connectivity, said External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, while speaking at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) summit, on Wednesday.
Speaking against the backdrop of heightened tensions and global challenges, Jaishankar pointed out that terrorism and extremism, particularly along the India-Pakistan borders, continue to hinder progress in trade, energy exchanges, and regional connectivity.
«Cooperation must be based on mutual respect, sovereign equality, and it should recognise territorial integrity and sovereignty,» he stated. He also noted the ongoing global conflicts, saying, «We meet at a difficult time in world affairs; two major conflicts underway, each with global repercussions.»
Jaishankar further highlighted the disruptions caused by extreme climate events, supply chain uncertainties, and financial instability, which are affecting global growth. Stressing the need for collaboration, he said, «Our endeavours will progress only when our commitment to the SCO Charter remains firm.»
In his speech, Jaishankar underlined the promise and risks posed by technological advancements and reiterated that peace and stability are prerequisites for development. He also warned against pursuing unilateral agendas, calling for genuine partnerships to foster cooperation.
