What did Brad Sherman say?

Referring to the Pahalgam attack at a special exhibition ‘The Human Cost of Terrorism’ organized by the Indian Embassy in the US in Washington DC, US Member of Parliament Brad Sherman said, ‘Those terrorists segregated and killed people on the basis of gender and religion. It was definitely a murder of humanity. As currently the whole world is focused on Pakistan whether there will be talks or not.

About India-US relations, Brad Sherman said, ‘We are natural partners. One is the world’s oldest democracy and the other is the largest democracy. This partnership should be economic and we have to get rid of terrorism. We have to open the Strait of Hormuz. Whether this blockade is imposed by the US or by Iran. We also have to fight those terrorist organizations who have killed people of your country on the basis of their religion on 22 April 2025. Our intelligence services have to work together and demand that all countries like Pakistan, which harbor terrorism, be cracked down on.
