UN discusses Kashmir for third time since India ended autonomy

Al Jazeera  

The UN’s most powerful body did not take any action or issue a statement after the virtual meeting behind closed doors. The UN Security Council discussed disputed Kashmir at Pakistan’s request on Wednesday for the third time since India’s Hindu nationalist government decided to end the Muslim-majority region’s semi-autonomy a year ago. Nonetheless, Pakistan’s Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said afterwards holding the meeting signified “that Jammu and Kashmir is an international dispute firmly on the agenda of the Security Council and has nullified, yet another time, the Indian self-serving claim that it is an ‘internal matter’.” China is seriously concerned about the current situation in Kashmir and the relevant military actions. Qureshi said in remarks circulated by Pakistan’s UN mission the international community “should exercise its moral, legal and political authority to call out India to reverse the tide of impunity and stop genocide of the Kashmiri people.” ‘Unilateral actions’ He urged India to reverse its unilateral actions, stop human rights and ceasefire violations, remove restrictions on communications, movement and peaceful assembly and immediately release Kashmir’s leaders. India’s new UN Ambassador TS Tirumurti tweeted after the meeting: “Another attempt by Pakistan fails!” “In today’s meeting of UN Security Council which was closed, informal, not recorded and without any outcome, almost all countries underlined that J&K was bilateral issue & did not deserve time and attention of Council,” he wrote.
