New Delhi: Soon after India’s External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar made a statement in the Lok Sabha regarding Operation Sindoor, Congress general secretary Priyanka Gandhi has said that the external affairs minister has not categorically stated that the US was not involved in the ceasefire between India and Pakistan.
According to Kashmir Media Service, Jaishankar asserted that at no stage in any conversation with the US was there any linkage of trade with Operation Sindoor and the request for halting the military action came from the Pakistani side through the DGMO channel.
Asked by the media about his remarks in the Lok Sabha, Priyanka Gandhi said, “There are certain things he has not categorically said. He has made some statements but for example he has not categorically said that the US was not involved in the ceasefire.”
“Jaishankar has said Modi ji did not speak to Mr Trump for a certain period but he has not categorically said that the US was not involved. That is interesting,” she said.
The Congress has been repeatedly attacking the government over Trump’s remarks.
