Congress slams jaishankar, terms him as ‘most failed

Congress leader Supriya Shrinate launched a scathing attack on External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar on Wednesday, calling him the “most failed foreign minister of the country.” Addressing a press conference, Shrinate said, “Jaishankar is the most failed foreign minister of this country.”
There has been no US ambassador in India for over two and a half years. You do the G20 and do drama, but you do not lie about the China issue. The PLA only says this in the meetings where the PM has said there is no encroachment.
Is Jaishankar suffering from Stockholm syndrome? You keep welcoming China. “A person suffering from this syndrome starts loving the one who harms him.” Shrinate referred to Jaishankar’s interview with a leading news agency where the Minister spoke about the border issue with China at length.
“EAM stated yesterday in an interview, “We are the smaller economy, and they (China) are the larger economy, and we cannot go and pick a fight with them.”What does he mean? This is the most blasphemous statement by an EAM. If foreign countries are plotting, what are you doing then? “Bangladesh is doing better on the economic front than us,” she added.
Hitting back at Rahul Gandhi, who has been targeting the government over China’s aggression on the LAC in eastern Ladakh, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said on Tuesday that it is not the Congress leader but Prime Minister Narendra Modi who sent the Army to the Line of Actual Control as a countermeasure to troop deployment by China, and the opposition party should have the honesty to look at what happened in 1962.
In an interview with a prominent news agency, Jaishankar said the Modi government had increased the budget by five times to ramp up border infrastructure. Referring to Congress and other opposition parties’ outrage over the Chinese building a bridge on the Pangong Lake last year, the Minister said the area had been under the illegal occupation of China since the 1962 war.
He said China was a bigger economy and India was responding to the situation that China has created along the LAC in Ladakh by violating border agreements.
