Pakistan Rejects India's Allegations of Being 'Epicenter' of Terrorism
India and Pakistan have consistently accused each other of fomenting terrorism in the region. The two nuclear-armed rivals have fought three wars since gaining independence from the UK in 1947.
The Pakistani Foreign Office has rejected comments made by Indian Minister of External Affairs S. Jaishankar, in which the latter referred to Pakistan as the "epicenter" of terrorism during a trip to Austria.
In a statement out Wednesday, the Foreign Office described Jaishankar's remarks as "baseless and frivolous accusations" and called his comments a "reflection of growing frustration over India's failure to malign and isolate Pakistan."
Jaishankar made the remarks on Monday during a joint press conference with his Austrian counterpart Alexander Schallenberg.
“Since the epicenter [of terrorism] is located so close to India, naturally, our experiences and insights are useful to others,” Jaishankar said, after mentioning the "cross-border practices" of terrorism.
In response, Islamabad demanded that India stop its "malicious campaign" of misleading the international community with "fictitious narrative of victimhood and vile anti-Pakistan propaganda."
India and Pakistan have accused each other of
fomenting terrorism in the region; however, New Delhi has argued that the presence of UN-designated terrorists inside Pakistan corroborates their claims.
