  "account": "India vehemently rebuked Pakistan at the United Nations General Assembly on Saturday, September 26, 2026, contending that the nation's repeated terrorist activities and attempts to normalize the scourge and imperviousness to its repercussions are unacceptable. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, addressing the General Debate at the 81st session of the UN General Assembly, criticized Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif for misrepresenting facts before the assembly the previous day, September 25, 2026. Mr. Jaishankar stressed that invoking arguments to normalize terrorism and claim immunity from its consequences is unacceptable. He underscored India's resolve to defend itself against terrorism and asserted that \"friendship and goodwill cannot co-exist with terrorism.\" Mr. Jaishankar called upon world leaders to reject understandings that endorse terrorism, emphasizing that the perpetrator must rectify their behavior. He highlighted the threat of state-sponsored terrorism with a transnational objective as a direct affront to the global order. India firmly demanded that nations engaging in such practices face accountability, particularly addressing the financial ramifications of terrorism. Sharif had previously utilized the podium at the UN General Assembly to commend U.S. President Donald Trump for his timely intervention in the 2025 conflict with India. During his 23-minute speech, Sharif also addressed the Kashmir issue, advocating for a just and equitable resolution to prevent South Asia from experiencing another conflict reminiscent of 2025.",
