Jaishankar Welcomes US Move to List TRF as Terror Group; Experts Urge Caution After Pahalgam Attack

External Affairs Minister Dr. S. Jaishankar has lauded the United States for formally designating The Resistance Front (TRF), the group behind the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack, as a Foreign Terrorist Organization and Specially Designated Global Terrorist entity. In a post on X, Jaishankar called the move a “strong affirmation” of the India-US counter-terrorism partnership, thanking Senator Marco Rubio and the US State Department. The decision comes after TRF, a Lashkar-e-Taiba proxy, claimed responsibility for the brutal attack that killed 26 people, mostly Hindu tourists. However, strategic experts have cautioned India against over-celebrating. While many view this as a diplomatic win post-Op Sindoor, others warn that the US may still continue its dual game with Pakistan. Former diplomats and analysts say India must remain alert and not lower its guard against terror safe havens in Pakistan-occupied territories.#jaishankar #trf #theresistancefront #unitedstates #usterrorlist #trfterror #pahalgamattack #opsindoor #indiaus #counterterrorism #lashkaretaiba #pakistanterror #pakistan #toi #toibharat #bharat #trending #breakingnews #indianews
