The United Nations Security Council has recently condemned the Pahalgam attack in Jammu & Kashmir. However, Pakistan, backed by China, sought to weaken the language of the statement. In contrast to the condemnation of the Pulwama attack, which called for cooperation with the Indian government, the statement on the Pahalgam incident only referenced “all relevant authorities.” This alteration came after intense discussions, indicating Pakistan’s efforts to prevent India from gaining an advantage in any investigations. The Security Council’s stance on the Pahalgam attack highlights the ongoing tensions in the region and the complexities of international diplomacy.
