Congress Criticizes US Strategy on Pakistan
The Congress Party in India criticized the new US National Security Strategy document released by the White House.
They pointed out two main issues: first, the document repeats US President Donald Trump's claim that he resolved a conflict between India and Pakistan, which India has denied.
Second, the new strategy does not criticize Pakistan for supporting militants, unlike the 2017 document.
Congress leader Jairam Ramesh used this to criticize the Indian government, suggesting they have not maintained a strong stance against Pakistan.
The US strategy document also mentions Trump's role in resolving several conflicts, including the one between India and Pakistan.
