Terrorism will stay as long as there are states sponsoring it: Gen Rawat
 Chief of Defence Staff Gen Bipin Rawat on Thursday pitched for strong global action against states sponsoring terrorism, saying there is a need to take the bull by its horns and strike at the root cause.

In an address at the Raisina Dialogue, Gen Rawat also said there is a need to take a hardline approach in dealing with terrorism, the way the United States went after terror groups after the 9/11 terror attacks.
"As long as there are states which sponsor terrorism, we will have to live with the menace. We need to take the bull by its horns and strike at the root cause," he said in an oblique reference to Pakistan.

On containing radicalization, the Chief of Defence Staff said it can be checked if right persons are targeted, adding there was a need to confront the "ideology of radicalisation".
Asked whether he supports negotiations with the Taliban, he said peace talks should be initiated with everybody provided they give up the "weapon of terrorism".

India’s Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal said New Delhi was in advanced stages to resolve some of the ongoing trade issues with Washington and was keen to expand ties further including a free trade pact. “With the U.S. we are at an advanced stage of dialogue to sort out some of the pressing issues,” Goyal said at a security conference in New Delhi. The two countries have been locked in trade disputes for months, slapping higher tariffs on each other’s products and the U.S. withdrawing a key concession to India. India was also in talks with the European Union to move toward free trade agreements, Goyal said. “As far as the EU is concerned, we are waiting for the EU to take charge,” the commerce minister said. “We are very keen to pursue the dialogue further.”
