What transpired in the conversation with JD Vance?
A thorough discussion on strategic partnership occurred between US Vice President JD Vance and the Indian delegation, including Shashi Tharoor. Tharoor described the meeting as highly positive.
Shashi Tharoor mentioned that India communicated to the US the clear message that mediation implies treating two parties equitably, but there can be no equivalence between terrorists and their victims.
He asserted, 'We clarified to the Vice President that on one side is a nation supporting terrorism, and on the other is a nation defending itself. Thus, weighing both countries equally isn't right. The Vice President understood India's message against terrorism.'
