Send Push
NEW DELHI: Amid the outrage in India over Turkiye's support to Pakistan during the recent military conflict, govt on Thursday warned Ankara that not being mindful of each other's concerns may not be in the interest of the ties with Turkiye. India also asked Turkiye to urge Pakistan to end its support for cross-border terrorism and dismantle the terror infrastructure it has created.

Asked about China's support for Pakistan , Indian govt said that the Chinese side is aware that mutual trust, mutual respect and mutual sensitivity remain the basis of India-China relations.

"We expect Turkiye to strongly urge Pakistan to end its support to cross-border terrorism and take credible and verifiable action against the terror ecosystem that it has harboured for decades. As you know, relationships are built on the basis of sensitivities to each other's concerns," said foreign ministry spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal.

The statement by the ministry reflects the anger against Turkiye, a long-time ally of Islamabad, for standing with Pakistan after India launched Operation Sindoor to take out terrorist camps in Pakistan.

Turkish President Recep Erdogan later doubled down on his support for Pakistan saying the brotherhood between Turkiye and Pakistan is one of the best examples of true friendship.
