Pakistan PM warns of ‘bloodbath’ in Kashmir, India’s Modi silent
Al JazeeraAt UNGA, Imran Khan accuses India of ‘cruelty’ in Kashmir while his Indian counterpart doesn’t mention ongoing lockdown. While Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi avoided any mention of Kashmir in his speech at the United Nations General Assembly, Pakistan’s Imran Khan launched an extraordinary attack on his Indian counterpart, warning of a “bloodbath” in the disputed region. There will be a bloodbath,” he said during an impassioned and at times apparently extemporaneous speech in which he called Modi’s actions in Kashmir “stupid” and “cruel”. “Today the message from the world’s largest democracy for the international community is still the same: harmony and peace,” said Modi as he called on the world to “unite against terror”, without going into specifics. Hull said India plans to use the UN mechanism of a “right to reply” to Khan’s speech “at some point later today perhaps”.
