The Indian Ambassador to the UN advocated for tougher measures to fight al Qaeda and the Taliban, and called for an end to moral equivalence and the legitimization of terror groups. “The escalating civilian death toll [in Afghanistan] is truly distressing, but the ultimate responsibility for such casualties must be laid at the door of the Taliban, al Qaeda, and those who support and empower them,” said Ambassador Sen.
