These were Western countries who had a bias towards Pakistan,\u201d Jaishankar said.<br \/>\nHe said that if India had been \u201chard-headed,\u201d it wouldn\u2019t have made that \u2018misreading\u2019.<br \/>\n\u201cActually, if we had been hard-headed, if we had a good sense of international politics at that stage, we would not have taken that call. It was done as a misreading of what the world was about. Somewhere we saw there is a sanctity about UN\u2026these chaps will be impartial and neutral arbiters,\u201d the EAM added.<br \/>\nJaishankar further said Article 370 had profound implications not just within the country but also on country\u2019s foreign policy and it took India decades to finally abrogate it.<br \/>\n\u201cWe were taken in for a ride by a set of countries who had their geo-political agenda, who used Kashmir as an issue of vulnerability for us and they continue to use it. It took us decades to finally take the call on Article 370. To me, Article 370 was not just the call within the country\u2026it actually has profound foreign policy implications. We closed today a window of vulnerability which we were foolish enough to open in 1948,\u201d he said.<br \/>\nLaying emphasis on young people visiting places having strong historical cultural imprints, the EAM said that a lot of people across the world will be looking forward to the inauguration of Ram Mandir on January 22.<br \/>\n\u201cIt\u2019s important for young people and those who travel abroad to go to those places where our cultural imprint historically been very strong. Then you will realise that what is happening in India is not something which is limited to us. As you start moving eastwards, you can see a very strong cultural influence,\u201d Jaishankar said.<br \/>\nHe added, \u201cBecause in Korea, there is a kind of belief that, they actually have a connection between their Royalty and Ayodhya. In the last few years, we have seen the revival of Ayodhya. We have actually had Korean participation in cultural programmes. They take it as a matter of pride. On 22nd of January, a lot of people across the world will be looking what\u2019s happening\u201d.
