Conservative — South West Wiltshire

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 May 2025

Debate

India-Pakistan: Escalation

Contribution

Does the Minister agree that whether it is the Nile, the Indus or anywhere else, weaponising water is wrong and particularly affects the world’s poorest? Does he share my disappointment at the suspension of the 1960 Indus water treaty? Does he further share my concern that were India tempted to exploit that suspension, China might decide to interfere with the headwaters of the Brahmaputra?
