Congress chief P Chidambaram has criticised the Tianjin Declaration of the Shanghai Cooperation Organisation (SCO) on terrorism, calling it ‘inane’.
The previous Union House Minister identified that Pakistan’s signature on the declaration signed throughout the summit held in China’s Tianjin earlier this week exhibits that nations the world over don’t differentiate between ‘terrorism-exporting’ and ‘terrorism-affected’ nations.
“The Tianjin Declaration strongly condemned terrorism in all its types and manifestations. It was signed and adopted by Pakistan. That exhibits the price of the Declaration,” Chidambaram wrote in a publish on X.
Member nations of the SCO, the Tianjin Declaration issued on the SCO Council of Heads of State assembly, strongly condemned the 22 April 2025, terrorist assault in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir, extending heartfelt condolences to the victims’ households and people injured.
The declaration underscored the necessity to maintain the perpetrators, organisers, and sponsors accountable. The ten-member SCO on 1 September ‘strongly condemned’ terrorism in all its types and manifestations, together with the assaults on Jaffer Specific and Khuzdar in Pakistan earlier this 12 months.
“Until nations of the world are capable of distinguish between terrorism-exporting nations and terrorism-affected nations, such inane Declarations will probably be signed and adopted,” Chidambaram stated in a publish on X.
Until nations of the world are capable of distinguish between terrorism-exporting nations and terrorism-affected nations, such inane Declarations will probably be signed and adopted.
