Mumbai, May 30, 2025(ANI): On Pahalgam attack, Hervé Delphin, Ambassador, Delegation of European Union to India, said, " We were all shocked by the barbaric terrorist attack against Indian citizens...the perpetrators of this attack should be brought to justice...we stated that EU recognises the right of India to protect its citizens and defend itself. We welcome the cessation of hostilities (between India and Pakistan)..., we should do utmost to fight terrorism..."
00:00We've been all shocked by the terrorist attack, the barbaric act against Indian citizens that have been killed.
00:11And I think there was an immediate and strongest condemnation of this terrorist attack.
00:18And I think the authors, perpetrators of this act must be brought to justice.
00:24And we also stated publicly there was a position of the EU 27 that we recognize as the EU the right of India in such circumstances, of course, to protect its citizens and defend itself.
00:37And we've been welcoming the fact that there is a ceasefire.
00:42And we really hope that this ceasefire will hold, that there will be no further acts that can reignite the violence that we've seen.
00:52But clearly, this is a reminder that we must do our utmost to fight terrorism.
00:59And I'd just like to recall that the EU and India have a cooperation on counterterrorism.
01:05And I think in the weeks and months to come, this will come even more on top of the agenda of our global cooperation.
