On Thursday, China for the fourth time blocked India, the US and other nations' bid to list Pathankot terror attack mastermind Azhar as a global terrorist
Defence expert Rahul Jalali said that China is adopting double standard on terrorism
If Azhar is designated global terrorist at the UN then it would prevent the terror chief from travelling internationally and result in a global freezing of his assets
This is the second-year Beijing has blocked attempts to bring about a UN ban on JeM's Azhar
Disagreements continue to prevail in the UN Committee related to terrorism issues in this case
US wants to make sure, it is leading towards result, not sitting back and allowing things to happen
India has been seeking to blacklist Azhar, after Pathankot attack
Chinese envoy declined to comment on the aspects of China was opposing a ban on Azhar
Chinese Consul said they are encouraging India and Pakistan to sort out the technical issues
This issue has being pursued by other countries also, says S Jaishankar
This is the 2nd year China blocked UN ban on Azhar which would warrant Pak to act against him
Instead, it is a matter of global terrorism, added India
Any India-Pakistan confrontation may bring other players into the region, which would complicate the situation
Move comes barely weeks after India's bid to get Azhar banned by the UN were scuttled by Beijing
After Pathankot attack, India wrote to UN to list Azhar under Al-Qaeda Sanctions Committee
Verma was, however, optimistic the Trump administration will coordinate with India on the issues
Jacques Audibert, Adviser to French President, was also confident of India becoming member of NSG
France will now discuss with India what should be done regarding JeM chief
China's "technical hold" on New Delhi's move on Azhar had expired on Dec 31
China had put two technical holds on India's move
