In another telephonic conversation with his Iranian counterpart Javad Zarif, Qureshi notified him about human rights violations in Jammu and Kashmir and deteriorating regional situation. He said people of Jammu and Kashmir are facing acute shortage of food and medicines under the curfew.
Qureshi also telephoned his Bangladeshi counterpart, Dr. A. K. Abdul Momen and discussed the current situation in Kashmir. The Foreign Minister apprised him about the illegal and unilateral actions of India to alter the status of Jammu and Kashmir.
Ever since the August 5 decision of abrogation of Article 370, Imran Khan has knocked on the doors of the global community, including United Nations and countries such as the US, Saudi Arabia, Russia and others. However, although some countries expressed concerns regarding the tension between India and Pakistan, all agreed and maintained that Kashmir is a bilateral matter between India and Pakistan with no scope for mediation.
