India pans double standards in fighting terror

March 26, 2003 19:31 IST

India on Wednesday disapproved the "double standards" pursued by the United States and some others in dealing with Pakistan's sponsorship of terrorism.

New Delhi's sharp rebuff followed renewed call by the US for resumption of Indo-Pak dialogue.

"The global war against terrorism can only be won when it is pursued without double standards and terrorism is eradicated wherever it exists, without being influenced by short-term political and other considerations," an external affairs ministry spokesperson said.

"The combat against international terrorism is ill-served if threats in some cases are met with military means and in others with calls for restraint and dialogue," he said without naming the US.

"The clarity of the commitment of the international community to combat terrorism requires a coherent and principled approach," he said.
