Pak protests over Gor’s ‘J&K important part’ remarks

Pakistan summoned the US Charge d’Affaires Natalie Baker on Wednesday to lodge a protest following US envoy to India Sergio Gor's description of Jammu and Kashmir as "an important part of India" during his visit to Srinagar. The Pakistani Foreign Ministry strongly condemned and categorically rejected the characterization of Jammu and Kashmir as part of India.

The statement emphasized that Jammu and Kashmir is an internationally recognized disputed territory, awaiting final disposition in line with the relevant UNSC resolutions and the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
