'Hosting Bin Laden, attacking Parliament..': Jaishankar slams Pak at UNSC

 

Foreign Minister S Jaishankar on Wednesday took a sharp swipe at Pakistan, apart from China, in his address at the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) as he spoke on multilateralism and the global challenges in the current times. Islamabad was slammed by New Delhi for hosting terrorist Osama Bin Laden, and the 2001 attack on Parliament also found a mention in his address. His comments followed remarks by Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto on Kashmir.

“We are focused today on the urgency of reforming multilateralism. We will naturally have our views. There is an ongoing convergence at least that this can’t be delayed further. The effectiveness of the United Nations depends on its capacity in facing key challenges of our times - be it pandemic, climate change, conflicts or terrorism,” Jaishankar said in his address.
