’India does not always align with West, deal with it’: EAM Jaishankar
‘India does not always align with the West’ External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said at a conclave on Saturday. This he said in context with severe criticism India faced by the West over the purchase of discounted crude oil from Russia and not condemning Moscow's actions in Ukraine Speaking about the difference of opinion, Jaishankar said that India has lived with differences with the West on issues related to Pakistan. Incidentally, analysts had expressed their disbelief over the US' announcement of military aid worth USD 450 million to Pakistan under its Foreign Military Sales programme for supplying the F-16 upgrade package. In November 2018, Trump reiterated that the USD 1.3 billion in aid to Pakistan would remain suspended until Islamabad acts against militant safe havens, reported Europe Asia Foundation.
