ISLAMABAD: Pakistan on Sunday rejected the “unwarranted remarks” made by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) of India’s official spokesperson regarding the recent joint press stakeout of the foreign ministers of Pakistan and Germany, during Foreign Minister Bilawal Bhutto-official Zardari’s visit to Berlin.
In light of the importance of the Jammu and Kashmir conflict, both foreign ministers concurred that the international community had a role to play and that the UN should step up its efforts to find a peaceful and just solution. This was stated in a statement released by the Foreign Office.
“While the views expressed by the foreign ministers elucidated the growing urgency and concern in the international community on the Kashmir dispute, the MEA’s gratuitous remarks have exposed the desperation of a country that finds itself increasingly isolated on the issue of its illegal occupation of Jammu and Kashmir and the reprehensible human rights violations being perpetrated by its ruthless occupation force in the occupied territory,” the statement said.
