There should be no distinction between terror groups: Modi
Describing terrorism as a "principal global threat", Prime Minister
Narendra Modi Sunday said there should be no distinction between
terrorist groups and each country must fulfil its commitments to
eliminate "terror safe havens".
India would deepen its
cooperation with the US in combating terrorism, Modi said in his remarks
at the joint media interaction here with US President Barack Obama.
Modi
said terrorism remains a "principal global threat". "It is taking on a
new character, even as existing challenges persist. We agreed that we
need a comprehensive global strategy and approach to combat with it."
"There
should be no distinction between terrorist groups. Every country must
fulfil its commitments to eliminate terror safe havens and bring
terrorists to justice," he said without naming Pakistan.
The
prime minister said India and the US would deepen their bilateral
security cooperation against terrorist groups. "We will further enhance
our counter-terrorism capabilities, including in the area of
technology," he added.
