India did not sign a joint declaration of a meeting of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO), which did not mention the attack on Pakhalgam in April this year.
The Minister of Defense of India Rajnath Singh took part in the meeting of the Minister of Defense of the SCO countries in the Chinese city of Chindao, NDTV reports.
Singh stated that the attack in Jamma-Kashmire was not recorded in decoration in April and they “oppose double standards.”
“There should be no place for such double standards. The SCO should without hesitation criticize such countries,” Singh said, refusing to sign a joint statement on the results of the meeting.
A statement of “Pakistani narrative”
Singh called the joint statement “Prekistan”, the unnamed source told Associated Press (AP).
Asserting that the declaration “weakens India’s position on such important issues as terrorism and regional security,” Singh noted that it mentions the “activities of the militants” in the Pakistani region of Belujistan, and the “Pakistani narrative was continued”.
Without directly calling Pakistan, Singh called on the SCO to criticize countries that “use cross -border terrorism as a policy of politics and cover terrorists”.
Indian aggression and collision
Conflicts between the parties began after India inflicted missile strikes on the Pakistani territory and the Azad Kashmir region controlled by Pakistan in revenge, as a result of which 26 people were killed in the Pakhalgam region in the Pakhalgami Kashmir region.
Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi at a meeting of the Cabinet of Ministers called the military strikes “Sindur Operation” and described the operation as a “moment of pride”.
India, arguing that the organizers of the attack in Pakhalgam “came from Pakistan”, suspended the “Hero Treaty of Waters”.
Two countries announced the ceasefire on May 10 with the mediation of the United States.
