While world was engaged in facing COVID-19 pandemic, its consequences, the menace of terrorism continued unabated: EAM Jaishankar at SCO meet External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday made an indirect jibe at Pakistan, in presence of foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto Zardari, on terror at the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) meet in Goa.
"While world was engaged in facing COVID-19 pandemic, its consequences, the menace of terrorism continued unabated," he said.
"We firmly believe there can be no justification for terrorism. It must be stopped in all its forms, including cross-border terror. Taking our eyes off terrorism would be detrimental to our security interests. Channel of finances for terrorist activities must be seized and blocked without distinction," added Jaishankar.
