India's External Affairs S Jaishankar, famous for his outspoken and explosive style, has now given a befitting reply to Pakistan. On talks and relations with Pakistan, the External Affairs Minister said that the phase of talks with the neighboring country is over. Now it will be answered in the same language that it will use. However, during this time Jaishankar also said that maintaining relations with neighbors is the most difficult task. If we look at any country in the world, neighbors remain a problem. Jaishankar's comment has come at a time when recently Pakistan has sent a formal invitation to PM Narendra Modi for the SCO conference to be held in Islamabad.

In fact, on the occasion of the release of a book in Delhi, India's Foreign Minister S Jaishankar has given his opinion on many important issues. Regarding relations with neighbors, Jaishankar said that neighbors are a problem for every country in the world. There is no country that does not have problems with its neighbors. He mentioned many other neighbors including Pakistan, Afghanistan, Sri Lanka, Maldives and Bangladesh.

Meanwhile, when Jaishankar was asked whether India can consider relations with Pakistan? To this, Jaishankar clearly said that what I want to say is clear. Whether the events with Pakistan take a positive direction or negative, we are ready to respond in the same way in every situation. They have to show the right attitude. Now the days of talks are over.

Jaishankar also said that every action has a reaction. As far as Jammu and Kashmir is concerned, Article 370 has been abolished. In such a situation, what kind of relationship should we think about with Pakistan? He again clarified that India can no longer see terrorism and talks together and Pakistan will have to reconsider its policy if it wants to talk with India.

Speaking on Bangladesh, Jaishankar said that it is true that there have been political changes there. We have to take care of mutual interests. However, our relations with Bangladesh have been full of ups and downs since its inception. We are capable of dealing with the then government there. While referring to China, External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that it is our neighbour as well as a power. On Maldives too, Jaishankar said that our relations have been full of ups and downs. India has invested a lot in this relationship, it is good that Maldives has recognised our efforts.
