Operation Sindoor Pakistan

In the wake of the Pahalgam terror attacks and “Operation Sindoor,” Pakistan tried to abuse the UN system to deflect from its role in sponsoring terror against India. In this article, Lakshmi Puri takes a critical look at the “infirmities of the UN’s counterterrorism arsenal” and highlights that the very framework meant to deter terrorism is riddled with loopholes, vetoes and stalling tactics. The author argues for urgent reform of the UN counter-terrorism architecture, if it has to retain its relevance.
