Guest guest Posted September 17, 2001 Report Share Posted September 17, 2001 Indicating India's reservations over U.S. unilateralism, the spokesperson reiterated the need for collective action by a ``coalition of democracies''. The fight against terrorism, she added, need not necessarily be preceded by the use of military force. The response to this menace needed to be multi- faceted and the use of diplomacy and economic measures could be combined. India first aired these views on Sunday after Mr. Jaswant Singh spoke to his Russian counterpart, Mr. Igor Ivanov. Significantly, the former Prime Ministers, Mr. V.P. Singh and Mr. H.D. Deve Gowda, along with leaders of the Left parties, had on Sunday expressed the view that India's participation in any international action against terrorism, involving the use of force, must be sanctioned by the United Nations.
