There was a pen in his hand but...Rajnath Singh's refusal to sign! Pakistan, China were told off well

Mumbai: Indian Defense Minister Rajnath Singh had a pen in his hand, a blank paper was lying in front of him, on which the joint statement prepared at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization (SCO) meeting was written. The Defense Minister read the statement and put the pen down on the round table. His palm was touching his face and his face clearly said that he had complete objection to the statement written on that paper. Apart from Rajnath Singh, the Defense Ministers of 9 other member countries of the Shanghai Cooperation Organization were also present at the round table. Rajnath Singh clearly registered India's displeasure in front of all of them.
The Defense Minister once again gave a strong message on terrorism to Pakistan, China and the whole world. This statement did not mention the Pahalgam terrorist attack in Jammu and Kashmir. Therefore, India refused to sign this statement.
From India, Rajnath Singh clearly said that this joint statement does not clarify India's position against terrorism. The statement does not mention the terrorist attack in Pahalgam anywhere. This action must have been taken at the behest of Pakistan. Because its close friend China is currently the chairman of the organization. Not only that, Balochistan has been mentioned in this attack. India has been accused of creating unrest there without naming it.
'Terrorism and peace and prosperity cannot go together'
Defense Minister Rajnath Singh gave a good message to Pakistan on this occasion. 'The perpetrators, financiers and sponsors of terrorism must be held accountable and 'double' standards should not be accepted while taking action against it,' he explained. At the same time, 'some countries are using cross-border terrorism as a 'strategic tool' to provide shelter to terrorists,' he explained.
He said, 'The biggest challenges in our region are related to peace, security and lack of trust, and the root cause of these problems is growing radicalization and terrorism.' Rajnath Singh said that peace and prosperity and terrorism cannot coexist. Peace cannot be sustained even by handing over weapons of mass destruction to non-state actors and terrorist groups.
