Influencing International Diplomacy: Changing India’s Diplomatic Discourse

Influencing International Diplomacy: Changing India’s Diplomatic Discourse

In my unwavering commitment to national service, I effectively advocated, within a brief 34-day timeframe, for the exclusion of references to “Pakistan” from joint statements between India and prominent international partners, including Japan, the United States, the UK, EU, Germany, Denmark, France, and five Nordic countries.

Despite encountering written death threat, purportedly from the Indian intelligence agency RA&W, I ensured that the Indian government omitted the name “Pakistan” as an alleged exporter of terrorism, along with excluding mentions of the “Mumbai and Pathankot attacks” from crucial joint statements. Noteworthy engagements included communication via Twitter with Prime Minister Boris Johnson and EU President Ursula von der, as well as the dissemination of open letters addressed to Prime Minister Kishida Fumio of Japan and the President Joe Biden of the United States, outlining concerns.

A pivotal achievement resulting from these efforts was the removal of the term “Pakistan” from Paragraph 17 of the U.K.-India joint statement dated April 22, 2022, following Prime Minister Boris Johnson’s visit to India. This change underscores a shared commitment to combat terrorism universally, without singling out specific countries. Its significance is heightened when considering India’s substantial influence over British leaders, as noted by former British PM Gordon Brown in his extremely biased memoir, highlighting Pakistan’s perceived vulnerability and association with terrorism.

Furthermore, I successfully engaged with European leaders, including Chancellor Olaf Scholz of Germany, President Emmanuel Macron of France, and the leadership of five Nordic countries, persuading them to refrain from including references to Pakistan, Mumbai, or Pathankot in subsequent joint statements with India.

These historic diplomatic successes are a testament to my proactive approach, involving the authorship of open letters to world leaders. These letters aim to expose India’s alleged false allegations against Pakistan while shedding light on human rights violations and acts of genocide in Kashmir and India against Muslim minorities. For detailed information and links to the open letters, please refer below.

1. Japan
   If we note that on March 19, 2022 the India-Japan joint communique literally named and shamed Pakistan at Para # 8 as below:
   India-Japan Summit Joint Statement Partnership for a Peaceful, Stable and Prosperous Post-COVID World March 19, 2022
   Para # 8.
   The Prime Ministers expressed deep concern at the growing threat of terrorism and underlined the need for strengthening international cooperation to combat terrorism in a comprehensive and sustained manner. They called upon all countries to work together for rooting out terrorist safe havens and infrastructure, disrupting terrorist networks and their financing channels, and halting cross-border movement of terrorists. In this context, they also called upon all countries to ensure that territory under their control is not used to launch terror attacks, to expeditiously bring to justice the perpetrators of such attacks. They reiterated their condemnation of terrorist attacks in India, including 26/11 Mumbai and Pathankot attacks and called upon Pakistan to take resolute and irreversible action against terrorist networks operating out of its territory and comply fully with international commitments including to FATF. They also concurred to strengthen counter-terrorism efforts in multilateral fora, and to work together on early adoption of the Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism (CCIT) in the United Nations.

   Now, if, we go through the Joint Statement dated 8 September 2022 of Second Japan-India 2+2 Foreign and Defense Ministerial Meeting held in Tokyo, there was no mention of Pakistan as can be seen at the link given below:

   Here, it will not be out of place to mention that the above mentioned major tangible change in the Japanese foreign policy towards Pakistan was by the Sheer Mercy of Allah (SWT) achieved after the following letter dated 20 March 2022 was directly forwarded to the Japanese Prime Minister and other officials of their foreign office:

2. USA
   Joint Statement on the Fourth India-U.S. 2+2 Ministerial Dialogue April 12, 2022 (name of Pakistan is mentioned).
   Counterterrorism and Counter Narcotics
   The Ministers welcomed the convening of the 18th Meeting of the India-U.S. Joint Working Group on Counter Terrorism and the 4th Session of the India-U.S. Designations Dialogue in October 2021. The Ministers strongly condemned any use of terrorist proxies and cross-border terrorism in all its forms and called for the perpetrators of the 26/11 Mumbai attack, and Pathankot attack, to be brought to justice.
   They called for concerted action against all terrorist groups, including groups proscribed by the UNSC 1267 Sanctions Committee, such as al-Qa’ida, ISIS/Daesh, Lashkar-e-Tayyiba (LeT), and Jaish-e-Mohammad (JeM), and Hizb ul Mujahideen. The Ministers called on Pakistan to take immediate, sustained, and irreversible action to ensure that no territory under its control is used for terrorist attacks. The Ministers committed to continued exchange of information about sanctions and designations against terror groups and individuals, countering violent radicalism, use of the Internet for terrorist purposes, and cross-border movement of terrorists. The Ministers also emphasized the importance of upholding international standards on anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism by all countries, consistent with FATF recommendations.

In this regard, I immediately wrote another hard-hitting open letter to the US President and forwarded to other US government functionaries, the very next day (on 13 April 2022) proving with international and Indian documents and facts about all the Indian acts of terrorism and its role in sponsoring terrorism in Pakistan, as below:

An Open Letter to the President of the United States dated 13 April 2022.

Here, again by the Sheer Mercy of Allah (SWT) the name of Pakistan was removed in the Quad Joint Leaders’ Statement of MAY 24, 2022
Link: – https://www.whitehouse.gov/briefing-room/statements-releases/2022/05/24/quad-joint-leaders-statement/
(where first time in the history of the USA, it specifically changed its foreign policy towards Pakistan) and although, Mumbai and Pathankot incidents were mentioned, but the name of PAKISTAN (which is a HUGE defeat of Indian foreign policy) is omitted as was clearly mentioned in the 12 April 2022 communique detailed above, where the name of Pakistan is clearly mentioned, which was the cardinal proof of the impact of my open letter dated 13 April 2022 to President of the USA.

The relevant paragraph of the QUAD Joint Leaders Statement dated 24 May 2022 (link provided above) is provided below where it was evident that the name of Pakistan was removed.

“We condemn unequivocally terrorism and violent extremism in all its forms and manifestations and reiterate that there can be no justification for acts of terror on any grounds whatsoever. We denounce the use of terrorist proxies and emphasize the importance of denying any logistical, financial or military support to terrorist groups which could be used to launch or plan terror attacks, including cross-border attacks. We reiterate our condemnation of terrorist attacks, including 26/11 Mumbai and Pathankot attacks. We also reaffirm UNSC Resolution 2593 (2021), which demands that Afghan territory must never again be used to threaten or attack any country or to shelter or train terrorists, or to plan or finance terrorist attacks. We emphasize the importance of upholding international standards on anti-money laundering and combating the financing of terrorism by all countries, consistent with FATF recommendations. We reaffirm that in our fight against global terrorism, we will take concerted action against all terrorist groups, including those individuals and entities designated pursuant to the UNSC Resolution 1267(1999).”

3. U.K.
   I relentlessly continued to serve the motherland and ensured that the Indian government was not allowed to mention the name of PAKISTAN, as a country exporting terrorism, from the below reproduced Para 17 of the U.K.-India joint statement dated 22 April 2022, issued after the conclusion of PM Boris Jhonson’ visit to India in April 2022. In fact, I Tweeted to the British PM even before his start of visit to India, my open letters to PM Japan (dated 20 March 2022) and to the President of the USA (dated 13 April 2022) which proved successful and the joint UK-India statement dated 22 April 22 did not mention Pakistan by name anywhere in the 40 paragraphs statement as detailed below.
   40 Paragraphs UK-India Joint Statement 22 April 2022.

By the sheer mercy of Allah (SWT) Pakistan’s name was specifically omitted from the Para # 17 of the UK-India joint statement dated 22 April 2022 as below:
“Both leaders expressed zero tolerance for terrorism in all its forms – and for all those who encourage, support and finance terrorism or provide sanctuary to terrorists and terror groups – whatever their motivation may be. They called upon all countries to work together to root out terrorist safe havens and infrastructure, disrupt terrorist networks and their financing channels, and halt cross-border movement of terrorists. They reiterated their condemnation of terrorist attacks in India and the UK, including the Mumbai and Pathankot attacks. They emphasised the importance of perpetrators of terrorist attacks being systematically and expeditiously brought to justice, and agreed to work together to take concerted action against globally proscribed terrorist entities and individuals.”

4. EU
   India – EU meeting in New Delhi between PM Modi and President Ursula von der dated 25 April 2022.
   India – EU meeting in New Delhi was held between Indian PM Modi and President Ursula von der dated 25 April 2022. She was also Twitted my above open letters to the PM Japan and the President of the USA to inform her in advance not to mention Pakistan, Mumbai or Pathankot on the behest of India.
   The April 2022 India – EU Bilateral Brief is absolutely devoid of any references to Pakistan,5. Mumbai and Pathankot attacks as is evident from the Link provided below, which is another testimony of the success of my humble efforts:

5. Germany, Denmark and France
   Before the Indian PM Modi embarked upon his visit to the above named three countries and a joint meeting from Denmark with five Nordic countries (Denmark, Norway, Belgium, Finland and Iceland) letters were written by me to all these seven leaders exposing Indian genocidal acts against Muslim minorities, which India always tried to hide by falsely maligning and defaming Pakistan with untenable charges of terrorism in India.
   Link:- An Open letter to seven European and Nordic countries heads of governments to stop genocide of Muslims in India | Loud Thinking (snayyar.com)
   The stupendous success of my above letters can be gauged by the fact that none of the above named seven countries mentioned Pakistan in any manner. So much so, that France which has extremely close defense sales and diplomatic relations with India also refrained to take the Indians false bait regarding Pakistan, which is evident from the given links provided below of all the Indian joint statements with Germany, France, Denmark and five Nordic countries joint summit:

Through my direct engagement in the aforementioned international diplomatic campaign with world leaders, my objective was to expose and counter India’s endeavors to divert attention from its war crimes and genocide in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (IIOJ&K) and inhuman treatment of Muslim minorities in India. This persistent endeavor underscores the influential role of individual advocacy in shaping diplomatic narratives and fostering a more accurate representation of geopolitical realities.
