India, Pakistan Trade Barbs Over Indus Waters Treaty Amid Terror Claims
Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif accused India of suspending the Indus Waters Treaty, warning of a "red line." In response, Indian politician Omar Abdullah stated that Pakistan's sympathy for Kashmiris disappears over water and that Jammu and Kashmir has suffered under the treaty, with "our blood has been sucked." Indian politician M.J. Akbar countered Sharif's remarks, stating "blood and water cannot flow together" and that Pakistan must answer for every drop of Indian blood lost to terror. India reaffirmed its stance on the Indus Waters Treaty, stating "no change."
