"No country called Pakistan a terrorist state; this is the result of your failed foreign policy. Then you launched Operation Sindoor, and no country gave a statement in your favour," said the senior leader

Senior Congress leader Pawan Khera on Friday criticised the Centre’s foreign policy saying the results of frequent foreign travels were seen during and after ‘Operation Sindoor.’ Khera said, "No country called Pakistan a terrorist state."
While speaking to ANI, the senior Congress leader said, "The result of our failed foreign policy was seen post-Pahalgam, during Operation Sindoor. No country called Pakistan a terrorist state; this is the result of your failed foreign policy. Then you launched Operation Sindoor, and no country gave a statement in your favour. Now, after Operation Sindoor, Kuwait has lifted visa restrictions on Pakistan. Iran, UAE, and Gulf countries are signing MoUs with Pakistan, and the most shocking thing is that yesterday, Russia signed an MoU with Pakistan to revive its very old steel mill, under which Pakistan will get 2.6 billion dollars from Russia."
He added, "This is the result of your failed foreign policy."

Khera also slammed BJP leader Sambit Patra’s criticism and defended Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and emphasised on Congress's right to question the government.
He further said, "The questions asked by Revanth Reddy are the same ones their BJP leaders have been asking. Their senior leader, Subramanian Swamy, is asking these questions. It's the taxpayer's money that the Prime Minister uses to travel across the world. So we have every right to know what the result of your foreign trips is. It's the taxpayers' money with which you empowered the brave Indian Army and forces. Yesterday, the IAF chief said that every project is delayed. Every taxpayer needs to know the answers. Where have you failed?"
Earlier in the day, BJP MP Sambit Patra targeted Revanth Reddy for commenting on the destruction of Rafale jets during Operation Sindoor.
Speaking during a press conference at BJP headquarters, Patra said, “Yeh jo Pakistan ke Babbar hain, woh Hindustan ke Gabbar hain (These so-called 'Babbar' of Pakistan are actually the 'Gabbar' of Hindustan).”
He also questioned Congress leaders including Rahul Gandhi, Revanth Reddy, and Jairam Ramesh for not questioning Pakistan about destroyed airbases and number of terrorists killed.
On Thursday, Telangana CM Revanth Reddy highlighted that Rahul Gandhi and Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge attended the all-party meeting and encouraged full support to the Centre, and emphasised on fighting with Pakistan and merging Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) with India.
