UNITED NATIONS: A top Pakistani ambassador has criticized India’s “malicious plans” to obstruct the water supply that Pakistan was promised under the 1960 Indus Water Treaty and urged New Delhi to avoid from halting, rerouting, or limiting rivers that flow downstream.
Usman Jadoon, Pakistan’s Deputy Permanent Representative to the UN, stated, “We will never accept any such moves,” in reference to India’s attempt to weaponize water, at the United Nations Security Council’s (UNSC) Arria Formula Meeting on “Protecting Water in Armed Conflict.”
