In a veiled attack on Pakistan, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj on Monday said the nation has been facing cross-border terrorism for several years and it has been recognised as a larger and global challenge.

She said India has emerged as one of largest recipients of foreign direct investments, reaching figure of 60 billion US dollars last year.
