External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said “We reiterate the threat posed by al-Quaeda, LeT, Jaish-e-Mohammed, D-Company, the Haqqani Network and other regional groups that seek to undermine stability in South Asia,” adding that India and the U.S. called for Pakistan “to bring to justice the perpetrators of the 2008 Mumbai attacks.”

The joint statement went further to “strongly condemn the July 27 15 terrorist attack in Gurdaspur, Punjab and the August 5 2015 attack in Udhampur, Kashmir.”

For U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry’s part, he reiterated Washington’s hope that India would also join the fight against the Islamic State, the jihadist outfit that controls parts of Syria and Iraq, and he said “India has pledged to be a key partner in [the conversations surrounding the global fight against IS] and I am grateful to them…”
