NEW DELHI: Expressing deep concern about the recent attacks in Doha and their impact on the security situation in the region, India unequivocally condemned the violation of the sovereignty of Qatar at an urgent debate in UN Human Rights Council on the Israel military aggression. PM Modi too had earlier condemned the attacks on Qatar.
"Such actions threaten peace, stability, and security, not only in the region but across the world," said Arindam Bagchi, India's permanent representative, Geneva. India hasn't named Israel in both statements, although Israel has taken full responsibility for the attacks aimed at Hamas leaders.
"India firmly believes that differences must be resolved peacefully through dialogue and diplomacy, in full conformity with the principles of UN Charter and international law. Any escalation must be avoided, and respect for the sovereignty and territorial integrity of States must be upheld," added the ambassador.
Bagchi also strongly urged restraint and diplomacy to ensure that peace and security in the region are not compromised. He said India stood firmly in support of peace and stability in the region, and against terrorism in any form or manifestation. "We call upon the international community to remain united in efforts towards attaining peace and upholding the rule of law. As a close partner, India reiterates its solidarity with Qatar and its people," said the official.
Modi had last week spoken to Qatar Amir Sheikh Tamim Bin Hamad Al-Thani and condemned "the violation of sovereignty of the brotherly State of Qatar".
