Malaysia believes in amicable resolution of Kashmir dispute: Anwar Ibrahim
Islamabad: Pakistan and Malaysia on Thursday reiterated their strong positions on regional issues including Gaza and Kashmir.
In a joint press stakeout following their one-on-meeting and delegation-level talks, both prime ministers told the media that their discussions focused on strengthening the bilateral collaboration in multiple areas of bilateral interest as well as regional and international issues including Palestine and Kashmir.
Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif said that both sides discussed the Kashmir dispute where people were being denied their right to self-determination despite rendering huge sacrifices for the last several decades. Thousands of Kashmiris have been martyred and many were in detention in 3rd class jails and made subject to severe punishment, he added.
He expressed the hope that the Kashmiris would soon get their right to self-determination in light of the United Nations Security Council resolutions and the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim reiterated that Malaysia was committed to the UN Security Council resolutions on Kashmir and believed in an amicable resolution of the dispute.
