The Foreign Office (FO) on Monday slammed Indian External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar’s statement who had admitted that Modi regime played role in keeping Pakistan on the grey list of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF).
“In response to the media queries regarding Indian External Affairs Minister’s statement of July 18, 2021, regarding India’s disagreeable role in the grey listing of Pakistan by FATF, the spokesperson said that the Indian statement not only exposes its true colours but also vindicates Pakistan’s longstanding stance on India’s negative role in FATF,” the Foreign Office said in a statement. “Pakistan has always been highlighting to the international community the politicization of FATF and undermining of its processes by India,” it further said.
