UNITED NATIONS: Pakistan has made a renewed attempt to legitimise its terrorism by defending its terrorist brigades sent across to attack India by making the outlandish claim that they are freedom fighters.
India denounced it as "doublespeak and hypocrisy" by the "epicentre" of global terrorism.
Nations should "distinguish between terrorism and the exercise of the legitimate right of people to resist foreign occupation", Muhammad Jawad Ajmal, a Counsellor at Pakistan's UN Mission, said on Wednesday.
