India says era of classifying terrorists as 'bad, 'good' on basis of political convenience must end immediately

The Hindu  

The era of classifying terrorists as "bad" or "good" on the basis of "political convenience" must end immediately, a concept note circulated by India in the U.N. Security Council here has said, underlining that categorising terror acts by intent as religious or ideologically motivated will dilute the shared global commitment to fighting terrorism. India proposes to organise a briefing of the Security Council on December 15 on ‘Global counter-terrorism approach – principles and the way forward” under the ‘Threats to international peace and security caused by terrorist acts’. The era of classifying terrorists as “bad”, “not so bad” or “good” on the basis of political convenience must end immediately.” It said that existing and emerging threats call for a renewed collective approach to terrorism. The proposed high-level briefing also aims to provide an opportunity for Council members to build on the recent deliberations of the Counter-Terrorism Committee meeting in Mumbai and Delhi held in late October under the chairmanship of India, to “further share their views on the current state of affairs and to aim to arrive at key principles of the global community’s collective fight against terrorism going forward.” Among the guiding questions for the meeting is what are the trends that the global collective needs to be wary of in the fight against terrorism and how the sanctity of sanctions regimes against terrorists and terror entities can be safeguarded and made effective in combating terrorism.
