Islamabad: Pakistan Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said this week that the Kashmir issue is the main source of tension with India, as he criticized New Delhi's action to revoke the special status of Jammu and Kashmir.
India abrogated Article 370 on August 5, 2019, bifurcating the erstwhile state of Jammu and Kashmir into two Union Territories — Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh. Pakistan has been observing the day as Youm-i-Istehsal to register its protest against India's action.
“The will and aspirations of the Kashmiri people, in accordance with UN Security Council resolutions, are the only path forward,” Sharif said. He added that the just resolution of the Kashmir issue was a key pillar of Pakistan’s foreign policy and urged the international community to play a role to help reverse India's "unilateral" actions of August 5, 2019.
Separately, Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar said Islamabad desires friendly relations with all neighboring countries and prefers dialogue and diplomacy over confrontation.
