- Her views on Terrorism:
- Terrorism, threat of proliferation of weapons of mass destruction and climate change are the critical challenges that confront us today.
- Today, no country, big or small, is immune from this existential threat, particularly, terrorism actively supported and sponsored by states. In this digital age, the challenge is even greater, with a greater vulnerability to radicalisation.
- India proposed a draft Comprehensive Convention on International Terrorism at the UN, but it remained a draft because of a lack of consensus on a common definition.
- Views on climate change: Developing and under-developed nations are the worst victims of climate change, with neither the capacity nor the resources to meet the crisis.
