The unfortunate reality is states who are apologists for terrorists will continue to provide alibis to justify their actions and inaction too as was done by a serial offender earlier today, he said without naming Pakistan.

''Global community is impatient for action. Going forward the UN collectively needs to do more and to do it much more effectively, Akbaruddin said.

He also assured the UN that India would be a willing partner in the endeavour.

''For its part, India will be a willing partner in this endeavour,'' Akbaruddin said.
