LONDON: Narendra Modi’s plans to isolate Pakistan internationally were jolted yet again as the UK government praised the sacrifices rendered by the people of Pakistan in response to a petition submitted to the parliament.
Giving official response to the petition, the government said ‘Pakistan has made significant sacrifices in opposing terrorism’. The petition has accused Pakistan of ‘double speaking on issue of terrorism’.
It further added: ‘The UK and Pakistan have a shared interest in the battle against terrorism. We are committed to working together to combat both the terrorist threat and the extremism that sustains it, in a human rights compliant manner’.
Similar attempts by Indians faced the same fate in the United States as well.
