Zero-Tolerance for Terrorism Must Be an Uncompromising Universal Norm: India

Jaishankar emphasized the need for strengthened global cooperation against terrorism and affirmed the right of targeted societies to self-defense.

  • At the 2nd India‑Arab Foreign Ministers' Meeting, Jaishankar urged a universal, uncompromising zero-tolerance on terrorism on Saturday, January 31, 2026.
  • Touching on the geopolitical environment, Jaishankar said the Middle East landscape underwent dramatic change in the last year, citing Gaza, Sudan, Yemen, Syria and Libya as heightened shared risks.
  • Highlighting concrete risks, Jaishankar called for concerted global efforts, saying `Cross-border terrorism is particularly unacceptable because it violates the basic principles of international relations and diplomacy` and urged the international community to strengthen cooperation.
  • He warned, without naming Pakistan, that it would bear consequences for terror attacks, tying security to the India‑Arab partnership and energy sources for India with large Indian expatriate communities.
  • The IAFMM, institutionalised by a 2002 MoU with the League of Arab States, follows a ten-year gap since 2016 and aims to expand cooperation into digital, space, and start-ups.
