Pakistan summoned the US Chargé d’Affaires in Islamabad and lodged a strong protest over US Ambassador Sergio Gor’s remarks in Srinagar describing Jammu and Kashmir as an 'important part of India'.
Pakistan's Foreign Ministry summoned the U.S. Charge d'Affaires in Islamabad and lodged a strong protest over US Ambassador to India Sergio Gor's remarks on the status of Jammu and Kashmir. The ministry dismissed Gor's description of the region as "part of India," insisting it is an "internationally recognized 'disputed' territory" whose final status should be determined in accordance with UN Security Council resolutions and the aspirations of the Kashmiri people.
The ministry criticized Gor's remarks as inconsistent with the U.S.'s long-standing position on the Kashmir dispute and Washington's commitment to international law and the UN Charter.
