Defence Minister Rajnath Singh's BIG message to IMF over Pakistan bailout package, calls it 'form of indirect...'
Friday, 16 May 2025 () Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Friday urged the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to reconsider a USD 2.1 billion bailout package to debt-ridden Pakistan, calling it indirect funding to terrorism. "The IMF's aid to Pakistan is a form of indirect funding to terror," the minister said.

Behind the scenes of the India-Pakistan ceasefire lies calculated pressure from the United States. Relying heavily on U.S.-controlled IMF loans and military aid, Pakistan was reportedly nudged by Washington to de-escalate. The U.S. is believed to have used its sway over Pakistan’s military, intelligence ties, and influence in international forums—possibly with help from Saudi Arabia—to defuse tensions. The strategic move helped avoid a full-scale conflict, as India also agreed to the ceasefire to ensure economic stability and regional peace.

India’s powerful and precise military response under Operation Sindoor forced Pakistan to seek a ceasefire, following the brutal terror attack in Pahalgam. The Indian Army’s targeted strikes on nine terror hubs across Pakistan and PoK sent a clear message: terror will be met with force. Despite international outreach, including behind-the-scenes pressure from the U.S. reportedly linked to Pakistan’s IMF bailout, India held its ground—refusing any political dialogue or compromise. The ceasefire was brokered solely through military channels, with Pakistan’s DGMO reaching out first. Indian officials have reiterated: any future provocation will cross a red line.
