'Largest hypocrisy in the world': Pakistan tells UNGA India’s 'terrorist exports' have gone global

Pakistan's Counsellor Saima Saleem delivered a scathing rebuke of India at the UN General Assembly, accusing the neighboring nation of exporting terrorism and propagating intolerance to a global scale. Saleem lamented that India has transformed its propaganda into statecraft, disinformation into diplomacy, and terrorism into an instrument of policy.

She highlighted the losses Pakistan has endured due to Indian-sponsored terrorism, including the death of nearly 100,000 Pakistanis and the draining of billions of dollars from its economy. Saleem further denounced India's role in the Kashmir dispute, emphasizing that the region remains an internationally recognized disputed territory under illegal occupation by India for nearly eight decades.

She also criticized India's denial of the Indus Waters Treaty and its attempts to weaponize water, a vital resource for Pakistan's 240 million people. Saleem's remarks came in response to India's representative at the UN General Assembly, where the Indian representative had claimed that terrorism had gone global.
