S Jaishankar at ET forum says Pakistan uses terrorism deliberately
India
India's Foreign Minister S Jaishankar didn't mince words at the ET World Leaders Forum 2026, saying Pakistan uses terrorism in a "systematic and sustained" way to pressure India.
He pointed out that no other country does this so deliberately, and that it's had a big effect on how Indians feel, and how India shapes its foreign policy.
Jaishankar: public opinion shapes foreign policy
Jaishankar emphasized that he can't ignore what people in India think about these issues.
He also mentioned that even as India's ties with the US have grown (despite America's long-standing ties with Pakistan), ongoing terrorism and a lack of understanding from other countries continue to shape how India deals with the world.
