World sees Pakistan as an epicentre of terrorism: S Jaishankar

New Delhi: Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar slammed Pakistan and urged the nation to be a 'good neighbour.

He said the world sees Pakistan as the 'epicentre' of terrorism.

During a media interaction at the UN, the Indian minister gave the advice while he was responding to a query from a Pakistani reporter who had charged India with supporting terrorism.

"In terms of what they are saying, the truth is everybody, the world today, sees them as the epicentre of terrorism," he told reporters.

He gave a stern reply to a Pakistani journalist when he asked  how long South Asia is going to see terrorism disseminating from New Delhi, Kabul, and Pakistan.

Jaishankar said: "You know, you’re asking the wrong Minister when you say how long will we do this? Because it is the Ministers of Pakistan who will tell you how long Pakistan intends to practice terrorism."

Jaishankar made the remark at a time when Pakistan Minister of State for Foreign Affairs Hina Rabbani Khar’s recently alleged that “no country had used terrorism better than India”.
