Luxembourg City, January 7: External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar sharply criticized Western nations on Wednesday, dismissing "free advice" regarding India’s security operations. Speaking to the Indian diaspora during a three-day visit to Luxembourg, Jaishankar questioned the moral standing of distant critics, suggesting they should instead examine the "levels of violence" within their own regions. The remarks were largely directed at international reactions to Operation Sindoor, a May 2025 Indian military action targeting terror launchpads. Jaishankar characterized Western concerns as hypocritical, noting that many nations offering lectures on regional stability often ignore escalating risks in their own backyards. "People sitting far away say things sometimes without application of mind," he stated, reinforcing India's stance of strategic autonomy. The Minister emphasized that while New Delhi seeks constructive partnerships, it will no longer entertain unsolicited interference in its sovereign security matters.
