Possible axis of China, Pakistan, Taliban-controlled Afghanistan cause for worry: Chidambaram

His remarks came after the UNSC adopted a strong resolution demanding that the territory of Afghanistan not be used to threaten any country or shelter terrorists

Senior Congress leader P. Chidambaram on September 1 said it is too premature to congratulate ourselves over the UN Security Council adopting a resolution on Afghanistan, and cautioned that the possible axis of China, Pakistan and Taliban-controlled Afghanistan is a cause for worry. His remarks came after the UN Security Council, under India's Presidency, demanding that the territory of Afghanistan not be used to threaten any country or shelter terrorists and that it expects the Taliban will adhere to commitments made by it on regarding the safe and orderly departure from the country of Afghans and all foreign nationals. Reacting to the development, Mr. Chidambaram said the government is congratulating itself for the UNSC resolution adopted on Afghanistan.
