External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar comments on Europe’s arms sales, saying weapons supplied by European countries have been used in attacks against India. He argues that this reflects “double standards,” asserting that Europe shows moral ambiguity regarding how its arms are used by recipient states. Jaishankar also says India has not done anything that would justify such criticism from Europe. The remarks, reported by NDTV, frame the issue as a gap between stated principles and actual outcomes of arms transfers. While Jaishankar’s comments focus on the perceived use of European-supplied weapons in actions targeting India, the sources provided do not detail specific countries, transactions, or documented incidents. The overall message presented is that arms-selling practices by parts of Europe create accountability questions, particularly when weapons end up being used against India. Jaishankar’s statement contrasts India’s alleged non-involvement in harm toward Europe with Europe’s role in supplying arms to states that, in his view, attack India.
