Lahore blast: Rabbani says West capitals, FATF now on test

ISLAMABAD: Former Senate chairman Raza Rabbani has expressed disappointment over the silence of the Western capitals and FATF on Indian terrorism and said that the Western capitals are now on test.

“If the FATF fails to take action against India, it will be exposed as yet another institution in the hands of the imperialists to exert pressure on states to follow priorities of their national security,” he said in a statement on Monday. He said India is a perpetual exporter of state terrorism while the world, particularly Western capitals, looked the other way. “The Lahore incident bearing a stamp of Indian terrorism is not surprising as RAW agents have for long been involved in terrorist activities in Balochistan and other parts of Pakistan,” he said.

He said India has been perusing a policy of internal state terrorism by suppressing more than 22 movements in India. The dream of western imperialists and India of becoming a police man of the region will not come true.
