US Senator Rubio introduces bill to ally with India, penalise Pakistan


The “United States-India Defense Cooperation Act of 2024” requires the US Secretary of State to report instances of Pakistan using offensive force against India, providing safe havens to terror groups, and aiding militants in Jammu and Kashmir.

Treat India as an ally, punish Pakistan on terror: Marco Rubio introduces legislation to deepen ties.

Marco Rubio, a powerful Republican Senator from Florida who was in the running to be Donald Trump’s running mate, has proposed a legislation that bats for deeper India-US defence ties in response to “growing threats” to India’s borders, calls for expeditious delivery of defence equipment to India, and asks the US administration to effectively treat India as an ally when it comes to technology transfer.

The proposed legislation, titled “United States-India Defense Cooperation Act of 2024”, also mandates the US Secretary of State to track and report all instances in which Pakistan has used “offensive force, including the use of proxies” against India, provided safe havens to terror groups, and the assistance Pakistan has provided to militants in “the Union territory of Jammu and Kashmir”.

The trigger for the proposed law is the shared threat from China. "Communist China continues to aggressively expand its sphere of influence in the Indo-Pacific while seeking to undermine the sovereignty and autonomy of our regional partners," Rubio said in a statement. It is important that the United States continue to assist in combating these malign tactics. In its policy statement, the

bill proposes that U.S. policy should be directed toward supporting India "in response to growing threats to our internationally recognized land and maritime borders." It would provide India with security assistance necessary to "deter actions by foreign actors" that violate those borders, and support cooperation with India in the areas of "defense, civil space, technology, health care, and economic investment."

  Terrorist Attacks on Israel and Indian Solidarity with Israel as India also Suffers Islamic Terror                         Islamic terrorism is a global threat, and no country is immune. Israel and India are two countries that have been particularly hard hit by terrorist attacks. In recent years, there has been a growing solidarity between the two countries in the fight against terrorism. Israel is a small country in the Middle East that is surrounded by hostile neighbors.
