New Delhi: In a clear signal to Pakistan without naming it, visiting British Prime Minister, Theresa May, condemned the Uri terror attack, with a joint statement by the two countries asking Pakistan bring to justice the perpetrators of the November 2008 and 2016 terrorist attacks in Mumbai and Pathankot.
The reference to Pathankot is significant as it shows that Britain too agrees that even the Pathankot attack was planned in Pakistan.
In another clear indication towards Islamabad, the joint statement also said there “should be no glorification of terrorists or efforts to make a distinction between good and bad terrorists”.
The British Prime Minister on Monday affirmed support to Prime Minister Narendra Modi in demanding strong action against those who support terrorism and provide sanctuary to its perpetrators after he voiced deep concern over cross-border terrorism. Terrorism was one of the key subjects at the talks between the two Prime Ministers.
