On Friday at the UN General Assembly, India and Pakistan exchanged accusations. Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif criticized India's position on Kashmir, alleging human rights violations. He also claimed that Indian missile strikes on May 7 initiated a conflict that lasted less than a week. India, however, dismissed Sharif's claims, accusing Pakistan of terrorism, deceit, and duplicity.
Sharif's support for cross-border terrorism, according to India, would have consequences. India's UN representative, Petal Gahlot, criticized Pakistan's military establishment and its treatment of minorities, reiterating India's stance that Jammu and Kashmir is an integral part of India.
