Islamabad, (Parliament Times) : President Azad Kashmir Barrister Sultan Mahmood Chaudhry has said that the European Union should appoint its special envoy on Kashmir to help resolve the longstanding dispute peacefully.
He said this while talking to Austrian Ambassador Andrea Wicki who called on him here today.
Stressing the need for early resolution of the lingering dispute, Barrister Chaudhry said that the Kashmir dispute could be the tinderbox and a flash point for a nuclear conflagration.
“Therefore, the international community, particularly the European Union should come forward in a big way to stop bloodshed and violence in the region”, Barrister Chaudhry added.
The president, while referring to the worsening political and human rights situation in occupied Kashmir, said that Austria having an excellent track record on human rights can play an important role to stop ongoing human rights violations in occupied Kashmir.
