Any discussion on Kashmir will only be with Pakistan and bilateral: Jaishankar to US
Foreign minister S Jaishankar on Friday said he has conveyed to the US in clear terms that any talks to resolve the Kashmir dispute can only be held between India and Pakistan and will not invite third-party mediation. “Wide ranging discussions with @SecPompeo on regional issues,” Jaishankar said in another post, along with a picture of the two shaking hands on the sidelines of the margins of a Southeast Asian foreign ministerial conclave in Bangkok Jaishankar’s comments follow the controversy last month which erupted after US President Donald Trump said Prime Minister Narendra Modi had sought his mediation in the Kashmir dispute with Pakistan, something the Indian foreign ministry and the US state department later denied. Last week, Indian foreign ministry spokesman Raveesh Kumar said New Delhi wanted to “move on” from the controversy created by Trump on the issue of mediation in the Kashmir dispute. “I thought we had moved on and, frankly, I think we should move on," foreign ministry spokesman Raveesh Kumar told reporters on 25 July, three days after Trump made the stunning proposal during a visit by Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan to the White House.
