India calls for zero tolerance for terror actors, sponsors at UN
Saturday, 16 December 2023 "The illicit traffic of small arms and light weapons and related ammunition is a key enabler for sustaining conflicts by armed and terrorist groups. This necessitates the need for coordinated efforts by states to limit the acquisition of small arms and light weapons by such actors.

This response follows a report by Politico, which disclosed that it had started receiving emails from an anonymous account containing documents from within Trump's campaign.
