Pakistan, backed by China, dilutes UNSC statement

The UN Security Council condemned the Pahalgam attack in Jammu & Kashmir, but Pakistan, supported by China, worked to dilute the statement's phrasing. Unlike the Pulwama attack condemnation, which urged cooperation with the Indian government, the Pahalgam statement only mentioned "all relevant authorities." This change followed tough negotiations, with Pakistan likely seeking to avoid giving India leverage in investigations.
