External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar hits out at Pakistan in the World Economic Forum, says that country must overcome its mindset issue

S Jaishankar
New Delhi: In an obvious reference to Pakistan, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Friday said India's entire neighbourhood "minus one" has been a "fairly good story" for regional cooperation. The abrogation of Article 370 provisions did come up for discussion in his meetings during the recent US visit, Jaishankar added at a session of the India Economic Summit here.
"That is natural for many people when there is a change of status...," he said during a conversation with World Economic Forum president Borge Brende. Jaishankar said he "spoke fairly extensively" in the US on the Kashmir issue — on the background, history, "why we did, what we did" — and asserted that a lot of it was new to the people he discussed the matter with.
