FM says world apprec­iates openin­g of Kartar­pur Corrid­orISLAMABAD: Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi said on Thursday resolution of the Kashmir issue in the light of United Nations resolutions was inevitable for peace and stability in the region and reaffirmed Pakistan’s moral, political and diplomatic support for the Kashmiri people in their legitimate struggle. The foreign minister regretted that India had intensified its crackdown against innocent Kashmiris after the Pulwama attack. He stated that denying the right to self-determination to the Kashmiri people, as recognised by the numerous United Nations Security Council resolutions on Jammu and Kashmir, continued to keep peace and security of the nuclearised South Asia hostage. He deplored that instead of introspection, the Indian government and its media hurled baseless accusations against Pakistan, without any investigation. He reaffirmed Pakistan’s moral, political and diplomatic support to the people of Indian occupied Kashmir in their struggle for the right to self-determination in accordance with the United Nations Security Council Resolutions.
