India’s Finance Minister Arun Jaitley on Monday said that most acts of terrorism across the world will have some links to Pakistan and blamed Islamabad for the strained Indo-Pak ties.
Addressing at the Council on Foreign Relations, in New York, Arun Jaitley said that most acts of terrorism across the world will have some footprint or the other as far as our neighbour is concerned.
Jaitley was referring to a number of terror attacks which are connected to Pakistan.
Afghanistan repeatedly faults Pakistan-based terror groups for carrying out attacks in the war-torn country.
“India made many efforts to improve the ties with Pakistan over the last few years but every time there was a negative reaction,” Jaitley said.
Mr. Jaitley also said India’s relationship with all its smaller neighbours has significantly improved.
“Whether it is Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Myanmar or Nepal, we have an excellent relationship with them,” Mr. Jaitley added.
