Turkey's Erdogan raises Kashmir issue at UNGA

The Quint  

New York, Sep 25 Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Tuesday raised the Kashmir issue in the United Nations, and said the stability and prosperity of South Asia cannot be separated from Kashmir. In his speech before the UN, Erdogan said that despite the UN resolutions "eight million people are stuck" in Indian Kashmir. Erdogan said that the 72-year-old Kashmir issue should be resolved through dialogue on the basis of justice and equity. His speech came after Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan met Erdogan on the sidelines of 74th session of the UN General Assembly in New York earlier in the day, and discussed with him bilateral relations and the latest situation since India's "illegal and unilateral actions" of August 5 to revoke special status of Jammu and Kashmir, Pakistan media reported.
