S. Jaishankar Netherlands tour
International News:External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar on Monday held important talks with his Dutch counterpart Casper Veldkamp in The Hague, the capital of the Netherlands, in which the two leaders once again reiterated India's 'zero tolerance' policy against terrorism. During this, Jaishankar strongly condemned the recent deadly attack in Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir and appreciated the role of the Netherlands in enhancing cooperation against terrorism.
Jaishankar's visit is the first stop of a six-day visit to the Netherlands, Denmark and Germany, which is part of India's active and strategic diplomacy. This visit is also a message that India is now not only deepening strategic partnerships with its allies on the global stage, but is also committed to giving new direction to cooperation in global peace, security and economic prosperity.
The Foreign Minister said in his Twitter post after the meeting that India and the Netherlands talked in detail about taking bilateral relations to new heights and strengthening cooperation with the European Union. This is a clear indication that India no longer wants to be limited to only traditional relations with Europe, but is also keen to build deep alliances in political, economic, technological and social fields.
As the nature of terrorism in the world is changing rapidly, the need for strong partnership and dialogue between India and Europe against terrorism has increased more than ever. Jaishankar emphasized in this meeting that 'zero tolerance' is India's policy against all forms of terrorism, and this policy is a guide not only for India but also for all its allies. Under this, strict steps will be taken against terrorist activities, radical networks and money transmission.
During this visit, Foreign Minister Jaishankar not only talked about security and terrorism issues, but also emphasized joint efforts in future areas like climate change, energy security, cooperation in the health sector, and digital technology. This visit is part of India's strategy that gives it an opportunity to increase its role globally by establishing cooperation in many areas with global powers.
After the successful meeting in The Hague, Jaishankar will next move to Denmark and Germany where he will meet top officials of the governments there to further strengthen India-Europe relations. The aim of this visit is not only to strengthen economic and diplomatic ties but also to promote cooperation in global challenges such as security, climate, and economic recovery.
This visit of External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar makes it clear that India is now increasing its diplomatic activism on the global stage. It is taking steps towards making its relations more solid, strategic and multidimensional not only with its neighboring countries but also with far-flung developed countries. This visit will increase mutual trust between the two sides and will help in collectively finding effective solutions to global issues like terrorism, security, climate.
Such diplomatic initiatives will establish India as a strong and reliable partner in global politics and will take India's reputation to new heights at the international level.
