'India should be stopped and it's the duty of the United States of America,' Azad Kashmir Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider told Newsweek as the United Nations also expressed concern.
The leader of Pakistan-administered Kashmir has condemned India's ongoing crackdown on its share of the contested border territory, calling on world powers to intervene., Azad Kashmir Prime Minister Raja Farooq Haider called Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's decision earlier this month to repeal Indian-administered Kashmir's decades-old special status and a subsequent crackdown"a crime against humanity.
India and Pakistan have long accused one another of supporting militant groups, but the situation deteriorated dramatically in February when the Pakistan-based Islamist Jaish-e-Mohammed claimed responsibility for a suicide attack that killed 40 Indian security personnel in Kashmir's Pulwama district. India responded with cross-border strikes that were met with retaliatory Pakistani attacks and a dogfight in which India lost at least one aircraft.
Asked about the issue on Wednesday, Russian Foreign Ministry spokesperson Maria Zakharova recalled previous conversations with Pakistan and India, saying Moscow has"emphasized the need to de-escalate tensions and that there is lack of alternatives to address the existing differences between Pakistan and India on a bilateral basis by using political and diplomatic tools only."
"For the last few decades, the people of Jammu and Kashmir have been victims of separatist propaganda and cross-border terrorism which has cost the lives of thousands of inhabitants of the state and the country. The intent of these terrorists has been to create an atmosphere of fear and terror and to block socio-economic development that would benefit ordinary people of the state," Malik's flyer said.
