Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi on Sunday criticised Defence Minister Rajnath Singh\u2019s remarks that talks with Islamabad would be held only on the issue of Pakistan-occupied Kashmir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Reiterating that Pakistan\u2019s position on the Kashmir dispute \u201cremains unchanged\u201d, Qureshi said, \u201cWe have seen the comments made by the Indian defence minister today.Addressing a public rally in Haryana earlier in the day, Singh asserted that there would be no talks with Pakistan unless it acts against terrorists and stops supporting terror activities. \u201cIf talks take place , it will be on PoK and not on any other issue,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
These are reflective of the predicament that India finds itself in, after its illegal and unilateral actions imperiling peace and security in the region and beyond.\u201d The foreign minister\u2019s remarks came amidst tensions between India and Pakistan after New Delhi revoked the special status of Jammu and Kashmir.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The UNSC on Friday took up the issue of Kashmir in informal consultations. The meeting on Kashmir by the Security Council ended without any outcome or statement from the powerful 15-nation UN organ, dealing a huge snub to Pakistan and its all-weather ally China to internationalise the issue, which an overwhelming majority stressed is a bilateral matter between New Delhi and Islamabad.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
