Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan Thursday said that the United Nations resolution should be adopted to resolve the issue of Kashmir between India and Pakistan, in accordance with the wishes of Kashmiris, media reports said.
The Turkish President was addressing a joint press conference with Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharief in Islamabad after a one-on-one meeting, Express Tribune reported.
“Our brother and sisters in Kashmir are suffering because of the escalating tensions along the Line of Control (LoC) and Kashmir, which can no longer be ignored,” Erdogan was quoted as having said in the report.
Meanwhile, Dawn News reported, Erdogan said that a close eye is being kept “on tensions along LoC and loss of life there.”
He, according to the report, said that through dialogue between Pakistan and India, “keeping in mind UN resolution and demands of brothers and sisters in Kashmir, a resolution in Kashmir can be reached.”
Erdogan landed in Islamabad on Wednesday, embarking on a two-day visit — his first to Pakistan since an attempted military coup failed to dislodge him from power earlier this year.
