'Don't fuel terrorism in our neighbourhood': EAM Jaishankar tells Poland; here's what Polish side said

NEW DELHI: External affairs minister S Jaishankar on Monday urged Poland to not help fuelling the “terrorist infrastructure” in the Indian neighbourhood. The comments came during bilateral talks with the Poland deputy prime minister Radoslaw Sikorski on Monday.”Deputy prime minister, you are no stranger to our region and are more than familiar with the long standing challenges of cross-border terrorism. Poland should display zero tolerance for terrorism and not help fuel the terrorist infrastructure in our neighbourhood,” Jaishankar said.”In the recent past, both in New York last September and in Paris this January, I have candidly shared our views on the Ukraine conflict and its implications. While doing so, I have also repeatedly underlined that the selective targeting of India is both unfair and unjustified. I do so again today,” the EAM said. The Poland deputy PM reacted to Jaishankar saying that he agreed on the “need to counter transnational trans border terrorism.””I completely agree with you on the need to counter transnational trans border terrorism. Poland, as you may have heard, has been a victim of arsons and attempted, state terrorism when a Polish railway line was, blown up under a moving train just very recently,” he said. “I also completely agree with you on the unfairness of selective targeting, by tariffs. And we in Europe know something about that.. Also, we fear that, this is progressing to a global trade turbulence,” he added.The Polish deputy PM said that Europe hoped India would remain engaged with the region and welcomed New Delhi’s expanding diplomatic presence. “We’ve noticed that you are establishing embassies everywhere in Europe, which means that you are serious about relations with the European Union,” he said.
