Tharoor said that the visit of their delegation to the 9/11 memorial symbolizes solidarity with the US in its fight against terrorism.
Tharoor while talking to ANI said that just as the US suffered the consequences of terrorism, India is still going through the same.
"Look, we went to the Memorial of September 11 to send a message that New York also suffered due to the issue of terrorists twenty years ago, this is our experience as well. We want them to understand that solidarity is essential in this matter," he said.
Tharoor said that the delegation wanted to convey to the US that if India is subjected to terrorism, it will take action. He also said that his delegation answered the questions put forth by the audience because it is imperative that the world knows India's stance.
