ISLAMABAD: Terming resolution of Kashmir dispute as a key to regional peace, the president Azad Kashmir Barrister Sultan Mehmood Chaudhry has said that the international community in particular the United States should play their due role to resolve the lingering dispute that has been cause and consequence of tension in the region.

The president said this during his meeting with Andrea Hillyer, in-charge of the Political Section of the American Embassy here on Friday. Speaking on the occasion the president while stressing the need for an early and amicable solution of the Kashmir dispute said, “India and Pakistan are nuclear powers, any accident or misunderstanding between the two neighbours can lead to a nuclear confrontation that will jeopardize peace in the whole world”.

He said that given the volatile situation in the region there was a dire need that the United States and international community should play their role to resolve the Kashmir issue.

Barrister Sultan Mehmood Chaudhry further said that after India revoked the special status of Occupied Kashmir on August 5, 2019, there has been an enormous increase in the violation of human rights. He said that many Hurriyat leaders, including Yasin Malik have been booked under draconian laws.
