Islamabad:
More than 130 countries condemned the attack of the pahalgama in the Jammu and Kashmiro occupied by India and expressed solidarity with New Delhi. However, India is annoying.
Despite the world leaders, including the closest allies in India in the United States, denouncing Pahalgam’s attack, they stopped in blaming Pakistan, the last thing that Modi’s government wanted.
The Indian prime minister, Narendra Modi, spoke with many world leaders and tried to convince them that the attack against tourists had a Pakistani footprint. The diplomats published in New Delhi were informed by the Ministry of External Affairs, building a case against Pakistan.
However, none of the countries was convinced and refrained to support the Indian position. So much so, the Trump administration, which includes officials considered close to India, wanted to see convincing evidence before blaming Pakistan.
President Donald Trump’s statement was a shock for India, who expected explicit support from the United States. Instead, Trump said that he was close to India and Pakistan and that he knew that Cashmiro was a long -standing issue.
A member of the US experts. Uu. He told The Express PAkGazette that Trump’s position was contrary to a close strategic association with India. The broader interpretation of President Trump’s statement is that he sees Pahalgam’s attack not as a mere terrorist incident but in the context of the Kashmir dispute. “That is a deadly blow to the Indian narrative,” said the American expert, which was the opinion that New Delhi wanted an explicit support from Washington, marking Pakistan as sponsor of this attack.
The diplomats, who were informed by the Secretary of Foreign Affairs of India about Pahalgam’s attack, informed their respective governments that New Delhi had not yet provided clear evidence about Pakistan’s participation. Some of them told the New York Times that India was building her case based on Pakistan’s past support for active groups in the disputed Kashmir region.
Part of the reason why the outside world, particularly Western countries, was not jumping the weapon or ready to support India in regard to its accusations against Pakistan was the history of the Modi government.
Under the surveillance of Modi, the secret services of India carried out extrajudicial murders in Canada and made a failed attempt in the United States. These episodes created distrust between India and the West. The second factor was the hurry with which India began to blame Pakistan a few hours after the attack.
International media and diplomatic missions closely followed the developments that took place after the attack. Many conclude that the Modi government seems to have developed a template to use such attacks to take political mileage by blaming Pakistan even without evidence.
Pakistan, meanwhile, not only condemned the attack, but also offered to participate in any “neutral, transparent and credible” investigation.
China was the first country to support Pakistan’s position, while it is believed that Russia also supported the idea of an impartial investigation.
The lack of evidence also helped Pakistan obtain a great diplomatic victory in the UNSC when he issued a statement by condemning Pahalgam incident. When the first draft was distributed among the 15 members, there were certain references that involved Pakistan. However, Pakistan managed to convince other members to bring the necessary changes that omitted controversial parts.
An official said that Pakistan was able to convince other members, including powerful players because they also knew that India had no clear evidence about Islamabad’s participation.
