NEW DELHI: India's efforts to sensitise the international community about Pakistan's role in the Pahalgam attack continued Sunday with external affairs minister S Jaishankar taking up the cross-border terrorist attack with his UK counterpart David Lammy. On X, Jaishankar said that he underlined the importance of zero-tolerance for terrorism in the talks.
As he leads India's diplomatic response to the attack, Jaishankar has stayed put in India skipping participation in the Brics foreign ministers' meeting in Brazil.
As tensions soar with Pakistan, uncertainty looms over the proposed foreign visits in the next few weeks of other key players like NSA Ajit Doval and defence minister Rajnath Singh.
Doval is also unlikely to travel to Brazil later this week for a Brics security meeting. While Singh is supposed to represent India at the Russian Victory Day parade in Moscow on May 9, the proposed visit hinges on how the situation evolves with Pakistan in the next few days.
Govt has so far received messages of condemnation of the attack and solidarity from close to 140 countries, with 16 world leaders expressing those sentiments in phone calls to PM Narendra Modi . countries have all, including China, condemned the attack.
Jaishankar's conversation with Lammy followed the latter's strong condemnation of the attack. Lammy had said earlier he was appalled by the "horrific and cowardly terrorist attack on Kashmir".
