00:02The External Affairs Minister, Dr. S. Jai Shankar,
00:05he's hit back at a Pakistani journalist
00:08who attempted to question him on the issue of terrorism.
00:11Dr. Jai Shankar said,
00:13a terrorist country is asking me a question on terrorism
00:18or that question.
00:19And this remark came on the sidelines of the UNGS session
00:23in New York.
00:24Dr. Jai Shankar addressed the media
00:26following that inaugural meeting of the group of friends
00:29on safety and security of shipping and seafarers.
00:32During this briefing,
00:34a Pakistani reporter asked Dr. Jai Shankar,
00:38words to the effect,
00:39can you tell us your government,
00:41when will your government stop sponsoring terrorism
00:44or what's to that effect in that terror country?
00:48And Dr. Jai Shankar very rightly and aptly
00:52dismissed the remark saying,
00:54a terrorist country is asking me that question.
00:59What a response, listener.
01:04When will your government stop sponsoring terrorism in Pakistan?
01:09And why will your government is trying to kill
01:11six-leader government Singh Pannu here in New York?
01:14Can you just tell us when your government
01:16will stop sponsoring terrorism in Pakistan?
01:18A terrorist country is asking me that question.
01:21They are approved.
01:25That is the only language
01:28a state sponsor of radical Islamist terror understands.
01:33Talk to them in the language they understand,
01:37whether it's an Operation Sindur
01:39or verbally.
01:41You just have to deliver these missiles
01:44to a state that sponsors radical Islamist terror.
