Modi’s speech was heard in the Parliament of Israel, but Modi is prevented from speaking in the Parliament of our country.
There was repeated applause for Modi in the Israeli Parliament, but this is not seen in our Parliament. After a long time, the ruling party and opposition MPs unitedly applauded Modi’s speech in the Israeli Parliament. The leader of the opposition there, Yair Lapid, posted a post on social media in Hindi calling Modi a true friend of Israel. As soon as Modi’s speech ended, Israel’s Parliament erupted in thunderous applause. People from the ruling party and the opposition stood up and expressed respect for Modi.
Outside India, Modi’s visit to Israel is being discussed the most in Pakistan. Pakistani diplomats and defense experts are worried about the impact of this visit on Pakistan. As India and Israel are taking their strategic partnership to the next level, Pakistan fears that the new weapons from Israel will prove dangerous for Pakistan.
Under the new partnership, India is expected to get laser guided air defense system Iron Beam from Israel, which is used to shoot down enemy drones. Apart from this, there is news that Israel has agreed to share modern technology like Iron Dome with India. Pakistani diplomats said that just as Saudi Arabia has signed a defense agreement with Pakistan, Israel and India are also going to make a similar agreement.
If this agreement is reached, India will start getting Israel’s latest weapons and new technology. Due to this, if any war breaks out between India and Pakistan in future, Pakistan will be in worse condition than Operation Sindoor. (Rajat Sharma)
