India warns Pakistan at UN against nuclear blackmail and terror

nuclear blackmail terrorism United Nations General Assembly disarmament Pahalgam attack

At the United Nations General Assembly's First Committee meeting, India issued a stern warning to Pakistan, asserting that New Delhi will not succumb to 'nuclear blackmail.' Anmol Sher Singh Bedi, a senior adviser at India's Permanent Mission to the Conference on Disarmament in Geneva, exercised India's Right of Reply following remarks made by Pakistan regarding Jammu and Kashmir.

Bedi emphasized that India's military and nuclear posture is purely defensive and shaped by its own security requirements, noting that India maintains a 'no-first-strike' policy. He criticized the use of nuclear threats to limit the consequences of sub-conventional activities, stating that such a posture increases the risk of escalation rather than promoting restraint. He further declared that nuclear weapons must not be treated as 'routine instruments of statecraft.'

Addressing terrorism, Bedi stated that India would make no distinction between those who sponsor terrorism and those who mastermind it, promising a 'fitting response' to any attack. He defended India's previous military actions, specifically 'Operation Sindoor,' which was conducted in self-defense following a terror attack in Pahalgam that killed 26 civilians. He described the response as measured, targeted, and non-escalatory.
