China blocks India's bid to designate JeM Chief Masood Azhar as a global terrorist in the UN

You want this Masood Azhar designated as a terrorist? You have to give something in trade. Nothing in life is free.

True.

Though negotiating on terrorism makes you no better than pakistan or north korea.

Such things should never be the main focus on negotiations but prelude to negotiations in good faith.

China isn't in this game to win moral accolades or be better or worse than anyone else. Such things are worthless, and trying to pressure China with them is futile. The only thing China cares about is advancing its interests - you want something from China, show it the money. As I said above, it's one terrorist for another.
 
Everybody keeps threatening this sort of nonsense. The only country that did anything was the US with its 10% tariff (on its own companies in China) and it hasn't had the b*lls to raise it to 25%. From which fever dream are you pulling your 200% number?:rolleyes:

There's no suspense here: China is going to veto. You want Masood designated? Well it's one terrorist:

Unlike you, the chinese govt. does pretend to take a high moral ground.

In any case you are free to bring a resolution in the UN for declaring Dalai Lama a global terrorist. Do that first and THEN ask for support.

To the point, any nation who "negotiates" on terrorism is negotiating in bad faith and that negotiations is bound to fail and need not be taken seriously by the world.

Who said anything anything about the UN? The Dollar Lama is in your custody. Hand him over.

Ask you govt. to send a written request to hand him over :azn:

Why haven't they done it so far ?
 
Now india will.start crying lol

It's a useful thing to string the gullible along. I have no such desire - I can afford the luxury of honesty, so I don't pretend.

Negotiating in bad faith? Depends on one's perspective. As for being taken seriously? China will always be taken seriously; by everyone.
News just in: China has vetoed the SC resolution to declare Azhar as global terrorist.
Heh, heh, heh. My good Hindoos, you must understand: you wanna get, you gotta give.

China Again Blocks Move to List JeM Chief Masood Azhar as Global Terrorist by UN Security Council
This is the fourth time that China has blocked the resolution against Azhar since 2009.

United Nations: India’s bid to get Pakistan-based Jaish-e-Mohammed's chief Masood Azhar as a "global terrorist" by the UN Security Council was once again blocked by China as it placed a “technical” hold on the resolution on Wednesday. This is the fourth time that China has blocked the resolution against Azhar since 2009.

The proposal to designate Azhar under the 1267 Al Qaeda Sanctions Committee of the UN Security Council was moved by France, the UK and the US on February 27, days after the Pulwama terror attack carried out by a suicide bomber belonging to the Jaish-e-Mohammed (JeM) that led to a flare-up in tensions between India and Pakistan.




The Committee makes its decisions by consensus among its members.


China, a veto-wielding permanent member of the Security Council, and an "all-weather ally" of Pakistan had previously blocked India's proposal from being adopted by the Sanctions Committee in 2009 and 2016. In 2017, Beijing also blocked a move by the US, the UK and France to designate Azhar as a global terrorist by the UN.


A UNSC designation would have subjected Azhar to an assets freeze, travel ban and an arms embargo. An assets freeze under the Sanctions Committee requires that all states freeze without delay the funds and other financial assets or economic resources of designated individuals and entities.

The travel ban entails preventing the entry into or transit by all states through their territories by designated individuals.

Under the arms embargo, all states are required to prevent the direct or indirect supply, sale and transfer from their territories or by their nationals outside their territories, or using their flag vessels or aircraft, of arms and related material of all types, spare parts, and technical advice, assistance, or training related to military activities, to designated individuals and entities.

Hectic diplomatic and political parleys had preceded the closely-watched March 13 deadline as New Delhi reached out to member countries of the 15-member UNSC.

In the wake of the terror attack in Pulwama, India launched a major diplomatic offensive against Islamabad, holding briefing for envoys of 25 countries, including from the five permanent UNSC members — the US, China, Russia, the UK and France — to highlight Pakistan's role in using terrorism as an instrument of state policy.

India also handed over to Pakistan a dossier on "specific details" of involvement of the JeM in the Pulwama terror attack.

Days before the March 13 deadline on Azhar's possible listing, Foreign Secretary Vijay Gokhale met Secretary of State Mike Pompeo in Washington. The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) in New Delhi said in a statement that Pompeo expressed his "understanding" of India's concerns on cross-border terrorism.

"They agreed that Pakistan needs to take concerted action to dismantle the terrorist infrastructure and to deny safe haven to all terrorist groups in its territory. They also agreed that those who support or abet terrorism in any form should be held accountable," the MEA said.

On Wednesday, the US said Azhar meets the criteria to brand him as a "global terrorist" by the UN and China's opposition to the move to "update" the designation list went against the interests of Washington and Beijing in achieving regional stability and peace.

"The United States and China share a mutual interest in achieving regional stability and peace, and that a failure to designate Azhar would run counter to this goal," State Department Deputy Spokesperson Robert Palladino said in response to a question on previous successful attempts by China to block the UN designation of Azhar.

An inkling of China's stand on the issue had come during Foreign Ministry Spokesperson Lu Kang's press conferences on Monday and Wednesday in Beijing when he was asked about the proposal to list Azhar as a global terrorist by the UNSC.

"The UN Security Council and its subsidiary bodies are run on strict rules. We already stressed China's position on the listing of terrorist organisations and individuals in the UN Security Council 1267 Committee on many occasions," Lu said on Monday.

"China will continue to adopt a responsible attitude and participate in the deliberations in the UNSC 1267 Committee," Lu said on Wednesday.

On the issue of listing Azhar, he said, "I want to say that China always adopts a responsible attitude, engage in consultations with various parties and properly deal with this issue."

"The discussions, I want to say must follow the rules and procedures of the relevant bodies and only the solution that is acceptable to all sides is conducive for resolving the issue," he said, indicating that Beijing may again block the move to list Azhar as a global terrorist.
