New Delhi, April 25
In the aftermath of the brutal terrorist attack in Pahalgam that claimed the lives of 26 civilians, international voices of support have emerged, with the prime ministers of the United Kingdom and the Netherlands strongly denouncing the violence. UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer personally called Prime Minister Narendra Modi to convey his condolences. Starmer condemned the “heinous” and “barbaric” nature of the attack, offering solidarity on behalf of the United Kingdom. “The UK stands with the people of India in this hour of tragedy,” he stated, reaffirming his government’s commitment to global efforts against terrorism.
Similarly, Dutch Prime Minister Dick Schoof reached out to Modi to express sorrow over what he described as a “tragic and inhuman cross-border terror attack.” The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) confirmed Schoof’s strong condemnation of the violence and his rejection of terrorism “in all its forms and manifestations.”
In response, Prime Minister Modi thanked both leaders for their expressions of support and noted that India is committed to strengthening global partnerships in the fight against terrorism. “India looks forward to working closely with the Netherlands and all like-minded nations to eradicate terrorism from its roots,” Modi said, according to an MEA statement.
The international reactions come amid growing outrage within India and increasing pressure on the global community to take a unified stance against cross-border terrorism.
