Topic Description:
The issue of banning Jaish-e-Muhammad chief Maulana Masood Azhar by the United Nations…
The chief of terror syndicate, responsible for several deadly terror attacks on Indian soil… is a free man in Pakistan… despite pressures from India and many countries across the world… largely due to China not voting for a UN resolution banning him… So far, China has blocked such move four times at a UN forum…
Now, in a latest move… the US, France and the UK have asked China to lift its hold by 23 April on a resolution in UNSC… Getting the resolution to ban Azhar through the UNSC requires all five permanent members… US, France, UK, Russia and China… voting for the resolution or any member abstaining without vetoing the move…
Banning Masood Azhar under UN norms would mean placing strictures on his travel and activities including collecting funds for his Jaish e Mohammed group…
So, what will China do and why it has been blocking moves at the UN to ban Pakistan-based terror group chief
