Chandigarh, May 13, 2025(ANI): Congress MP Manish Tewari said, "The statement which has come from US President Donald Trump is, whether you like it or not, a factual statement. If you look at the India-Pakistan paradigm in a perspective from 1947 to 1972, whenever tensions went up between India and Pakistan and they were primarily over the state of Jammu and Kashmir, it was the United Nations Security Council resolutions which were the template for whatever interlocution took place between the two countries...The bottom line ultimately is that when tensions ratchet up between two de facto nuclear weapon states, the rest of the world is not going to stand by and watch. Therefore, the other countries of the world will obviously be talking to both countries when they're not talking to each other…, One thing is very evident that a message has gone to Pakistan that if it continues to use terror as an instrument of state policy there would be punitive consequences and those punitive consequences in the aftermath of the Pahalgam massacre were executed by the Indian Armed Forces... I think the Pakistani leadership would have realised that it cannot be business as usual. They cannot use nuclear blackmail in order to continue with state-sponsored terror. I do hope that the Pakistani leadership, both the civilian leadership and more importantly the military leadership and even most importantly the Pakistani deep state, which has spawned these semi-state actors, would get the message very clear."
