informed to China in clear terms that you cannot have two standards on
terrorism. China cannot say that it will't accept or it is against terrorism

When asked about India's disapproval to the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor,
the minister said there are problems. It is through a territory which belongs
to India and India has raised its concerns and has told China about it. Let's

S Jaishankar (Foreign secretary) said that terrorism remains the focus of
India's engagement with Pakistan. He said while addressing in a inauguration of US think-tank Carnegie Endowment for International Peace in India, the change this government has
brought in is the centrality of terrorism in the dialogue whether it was Ufa,
or the NSA meeting in Bangkok or the comprehensive bilateral dialogue when it
happens. Jaishankar said, the issue of terrorism needs to
be addressed effectively as it is hard to say that relationship with Pakistan
is normal. This is what puts Pakistan in a different category than other
neighbours. So yes, terrorism remains the focal point of our relationship and
Pathankot has made it so as well. China's decision to block the ban on
Masood Azhar in the United Nations Security Council who is responsible for
terrorist acts in india, Jaishankar confirmed India had taken up the issue with
the Chinese at a 'fairly high level'. India will continue to engage China on
the issue but it's at the United Nations. This issue will not overflow into
other issues.
