RSS affiliate calls for sanctions against Turkey over its ‘Unholy Alliance’ with Pak

NEW DELHI, MAY 14

- 

RSS-affiliate Swadeshi Jagran Manch (SJM) on Wednesday urged the government to impose economic sanctions, suspend civil aviation links, discourage outbound tourism and re-evaluate diplomatic engagements with Turkey due to its “unholy alliance” with Pakistan which directly compromises India's security.

The SJM also appealed to the people of India to avoid travelling to Turkey and boycott its products in solidarity with the country's soldiers and national interest.

This comes amid heightened tensions between India and Pakistan following their four-day military confrontation. The conflict saw Pakistan unleash swarms of Turkish drones to target Indian military facilities.

“It is shocking to note that Turkey, the second-largest arms supplier to Pakistan after China, has played a key role in modernising Pakistan’s navy and enhancing its aerial warfare capabilities.

“This defence collaboration is not just commercial; it is ideological, targeting the stability of South Asia and emboldening Pakistan's military adventurism,” SJM national co-convenor Ashwini Mahajan said in a statement.

The SJM strongly condemns this “unholy alliance” that directly compromises India’s national security, he said.
