PM Modi's Strong Stance Against Terrorism at G7 Summit, Canada
During his address at the G7 Outreach Session in Kananaskis, Prime Minister Modi unequivocally condemned terrorism, highlighting it as an enemy of humanity that undermines democratic values. He called for a unified global response to terrorism, emphasizing the need for strict action against those who "promote and support" it. Modi stated that for global peace and prosperity, the international community must be clear: "If any country supports terrorism, it will have to pay the price for it." He further criticized the "double standards" in dealing with terrorism, noting how some countries are quick to impose sanctions based on their preferences, while others that openly support terrorism are rewarded. PM Modi also expressed gratitude to the global leaders for condemning the recent Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir, asserting that the attack was not just on Pahalgam but on the "soul, identity, and dignity of every Indian," and indeed, on the entire humanity.
