According to the Foreign Minister, Pakistan desires excellent relations with all of its neighbors, including India. Good relations, on the other hand, can only be achieved through disagreement resolution rather than dispute denial. He stated that long-term peace in South Asia is dependent on the resolution of the Jammu and Kashmir conflict.
Prime Minister Mian Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif also expressed solidarity with Kashmiri brothers and sisters and said that Pakistan will continue to lend its unstinted moral, political, and diplomatic support to the rightful and just cause of the freedom struggle of the Kashmiri people. He said today marks the completion of four years since India deprived Kashmiris of their statehood by unilaterally annexing Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu & Kashmir (IIOJK). He urged India to reverse its conduct of August 5. History demonstrates that brutal force has never succeeded in extinguishing the flame of liberty and rights.
