India won't give in to nuclear blackmail from Pakistan: Jaishankar in Berlin

External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar Friday said India has zero tolerance for terrorism and New Delhi will "never give in to nuclear blackmail".

In his remarks at a joint press conference with German counterpart Johann Wadephul, Jaishankar also said that "India will deal with Pakistan purely bilaterally" and there should be no confusion in that regard.

He is currently in Germany as part of his three-nation Europe visit.

"I came to Berlin in the immediate aftermath of India responding to the Pahalgam terror attack. Let me share with you what I conveyed to Mr Wadephul in that context. India has zero tolerance for terrorism. India will never give in to nuclear blackmail," Jaishankar said. "India will deal with Pakistan purely bilaterally. There should be no confusion in any quarter in that regard."

He also said that India values Germany's understanding that "every nation has a right to defend itself against terrorism". India launched its diplomatic outreach exercise after the 22 April Pahalgam terror attack and Operation Sindoor, with Prime Minister Narendra Modi declaring a "new normal" where New Delhi will consider any act of cross-border terrorism an act of war against India.
