UK and India Explore Enhanced Counter-Terrorism Cooperation Following Tensions with Pakistan

 

New Delhi - The United Kingdom and India are considering expanding their collaboration on counter-terrorism initiatives. This follows a recent period of heightened tensions between India and Pakistan.


British Foreign Minister David Lammy engaged in discussions with Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi regarding this matter. Lammy's visit marks the first high-profile engagement by a Western official with both New Delhi and Islamabad since the ceasefire agreement between the South Asian neighbours last month.


The recent tensions were sparked by the deaths of 26 men in Indian Kashmir in April. India attributed the killings to Pakistan-backed terrorists, a claim denied by Islamabad. India retaliated by targeting what it described as terrorist infrastructure within Pakistan, leading to further escalation until a ceasefire was established on May 10.


Lammy emphasized the importance of maintaining stability in the region, particularly in light of the threat of terrorism aimed at destabilizing India. He expressed the UK's commitment to working with Indian partners on counter-terrorism measures.


Discussions with Modi and Indian Foreign Minister S. Jaishankar focused on the next steps for collaboration, though specific details were not disclosed. Previous discussions between India and Britain have included combating the financing of terrorism, enhancing cooperation between law enforcement and judicial bodies, and improving information sharing.


In addition to security concerns, Lammy highlighted the potential for increased trade between the UK and India, both major global economies. He noted that a free trade agreement is in the works.
