San Jose: Describing terrorism and global warming as the two biggest threats to the world, the Prime Minister Narendra Modi today questioned why the UN had not yet arrived at a clear definition of terrorism.
"If it has taken the UN 15 years to define terrorism, how many years will they take to fight it?" PM Modi said, addressing a large gathering of the Indian diaspora at the SAP Centre in San Jose.
"They can't distinguish between good terrorism and bad terrorism in our world...but that is not true. Terrorism is terrorism," he said, in an apparent dig at Pakistan.
"We have to save the 21st century from being destroyed by terrorism. I have said this to the UN. I am going again tomorrow, and I will tell them again tomorrow," he said.
