After the US Ambassador's statement on the India-China border dispute in India, now a senior French diplomat has commented.
Now Emmanuel Bonan, diplomatic adviser to French President Emmanuel Macron, has said that 'when China breaks the rules, we should be very strong and clear'
He said that France has always been helpful in the issue of Kashmir in the UN Security Council and "China should not be allowed to participate in any procedural games."
After the US ambassador's comment on the India-China border dispute, the Chinese ambassador in India objected to this. The Chinese ambassador to India had tweeted, "India and China are capable of resolving their border dispute and no third country should fall into it".
According to The Hindu newspaper, Emmanuel Bonn, the diplomatic adviser to French President Emmanuel Macron, said in a webinar of the think tank Vivekananda International Foundation on Thursday that France is always clear on the issue of direct threat to India.
He said, "We should not go for confrontation. It is very easy to say this to Paris and Delhi and then when you have a problem in the Himalayas and you have Pakistan with you on the border. I mean India is in direct danger, we always have been clear on this. As far as the issue of Kashmir is concerned, we are supporters of India in the Security Council. In the procedural games, we cannot let China play any game. "
Referring to the controversy in eastern Ladakh, he said that as far as the Himalayas are concerned, the statement is 'clear'.
Emmanuel Bonn said, "China tells us secretly what we say in public. We need to be strong."
Bonn was in India for the third Indo-French strategic dialogue with National Security Advisor Ajit Doval.
Bon expressed his thanks for expressing India's support for Turkey and Pakistan's 'opposition to propaganda'. He said that India's relations with Pakistan were 'historically at the lowest level'.
He said, "When our country was reeling under the attack of some leaders of Turkey, Pakistan, and other countries, we are very appreciative of your support which we got not only from your administration but also from the civil society of India."
He said that he wants China to respect 'certain rules' and be 'less aggressive'.
Bon said that China should work in the same framework as the rest of them, and France needs to be more defensive, aggressive but more dynamic and agile.
Warrant issued for Masood Azhar's arrest
Pakistan on Thursday admitted that the whereabouts of Masood Azhar, the chief of the extremist organization Jaish-e-Mohammed, is within its limits and an arrest warrant has been issued against it.
There is speculation that the reason behind this step in Pakistan is the meeting of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) which is going to happen soon.
According to the news published in Hindustan Times, Natasha Nasim Supra, an anti-terrorism court judge in Gujranwala, Pakistan, has issued a warrant against Masood Azhar. He is accused of funding for terrorism.
The court also directed that Azhar should be produced in the court on Friday.
According to the newspaper, Indian officials have directly linked this step to the FATF meeting in this month and February. India has already given evidence against Jaish-e-Mohammed and Masood Azhar in the attack in Pulwama on 14 February 2019. 40 CRPF personnel were killed in this attack.
The newspaper quoted an official as saying, "This step has been taken so that Pakistan can avoid going into the blacklist of FATF". They will show that we are taking action against people declared terrorists from the United Nations. In the FATF report, the name of Jaish-e-Mohammed was also included for Terror Funding in the last two years.
