United Nations, August 25
India hit out at Pakistan for its litany of lies at the United Nations after Islamabad's UN envoy claimed to have given a statement in a Security Council meeting not open to non-Council members and said the biggest sponsor of cross-border terrorism against it now tries to "masquerade" itself as a victim of terror.
Calling out Pakistan's lie that it has been a target of cross-border terrorism for decades, India said "a lie repeated a hundred times will not become truth. The biggest sponsor of cross-border terrorism against India now tries to masquerade itself as a victim of terrorism by India," India's Permanent Mission to the UN said.
The Pakistan Mission falsely claimed that its UN envoy Munir Akram gave a statement at a Security Council debate on report of the Secretary General on threats to international peace and security posed by terrorism actions.
However, the Security Council meeting on threats to international peace and security was not open to non-members of the Council. A photograph of the meeting tweeted by the German Mission to the UN showed only envoys of the 15 Security Council members participating in the meeting. Pakistan is not a member of the Council. — PTI
