Ankara: Turkey has once again raised the issue of Jammu and Kashmir at the United Nations Human Rights Council meeting to support Pakistan. Turkish Foreign Minister Mevlut Kavusoglu, while addressing the 46th session of the Human Rights Council, said that we demand the Indian government to relax the restrictions imposed in Jammu and Kashmir. We want to see the problem of Jammu and Kashmir resolved peacefully according to the expectations of the people based on the UN resolution.
Earlier on several occasions, Turkish President Rechap Tayyip Erdogan has raised the Kashmir issue in the United Nations. In September last year, Erdogan waged the Kashmir raga while addressing the United Nations General Assembly. He said that Kashmir is a burning issue and is very important for peace and stability in South Asia. This problem has become even more serious after the removal of the special status of Jammu and Kashmir (Article 370). We want a solution under this UN resolution. He also praised Pakistan during his address.
