'Should Be Celebrated': Shashi Tharoor Exclusive On Pak Role In Ceasefire

India should celebrate Pakistan's mediation that led to a US-Iran ceasefire because we want peace too, senior Congress leader Shashi Tharoor told NDTV's Vasudha Venugopal in an exclusive interview today. He also described India's response as "mature" and "sensible".

Asked if Islamabad's role in mediating the truce should make New Delhi apprehensive, he replied, "I don't see why, because honestly, not everything is zero-sum. If Pakistan were being applauded for sending terrorists to India, then it would be a zero-sum game. But when what the Pakistanis are doing is working for a peace that we also want, I think we should actually be celebrating."
