NEW DELHI: India today strongly pitched for united action against the menace of terrorism and asserted that shared prosperity is virtually impossible without shared security.
Minister of State for External Affairs M J Akbar also said that economic growth needs stability and peace.
“Shared prosperity is virtually impossible without shared security…The principal security threat which exists in Africa and our region is terrorism,” he said at the CII-Exim Bank Conclave on India Africa Project Partnership here.
“We have to find a united answer to a menace which is as dangerous to any country represented in this room as it is to us. We have to understand that we cannot compromise with this evil and if we do so, we compromise at the risk of committing huge amount of self-harm, almost suicidal,” he added.
Akbar said that there is no good or bad terrorism and both India and Africa have to unite to fight this together. (AGENCIES)
