ISLAMABAD: Just days after Prime Minister Imran Khan’s highly successful visit to Washington, China and Turkey on Friday threw their weight behind the international community’s efforts to seek a peaceful resolution to the longstanding Kashmir dispute.

Beijing especially backed US President Donald Trump’s recent offer of mediation between Pakistan and India in the Kashmir issue.

“We support the international community, the US included, in playing a constructive role in improving Pakistan-India relations through dialogue,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Hua Chunying said in a statement issued in Beijing.

“We hope the two countries can peacefully settle the Kashmir issue and other bilateral disputes through dialogue, and make concerted efforts to safeguard peace and stability in South Asia,” she added.

Similarly, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan also telephoned Prime Minister Imran Khan to discuss bilateral ties as well as developments in the region, including the Indian Occupied Kashmir and ongoing efforts for Afghan peace.

The support by China and Turkey is seen as another diplomatic victory for Pakistan at a time when the visit of Imran Khan to the United States effectively neutralised Indian efforts to isolate Islamabad globally.

Officials said positive moves on the diplomatic front were the result of prime minister’s successful visit to the US.

In his first visit since becoming the prime minister, Imran, even independent observers agree, pulled off a diplomatic coup in Washington with his positive and constructive engagements not only with President Trump but with other US figures also.

Imran was invited to the White House primarily to discuss the Afghan endgame but Trump’s unprecedented statement offering mediation in the Kashmir dispute stole the limelight.

What was more signification was Trump’s revelations that even Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi requested him to play the role of mediator between Pakistan and India.

New Delhi, however, was quick to reject Trump’s statement. Nevertheless, uproar in India suggested that the neighbouring country was upset over Pakistan once again being at the centre stage for the Afghan peace process.

India has long been pushing for seeking Pakistan’s isolation and before the prime minister’s visit, the Trump administration was more inclined towards New Delhi’s narrative.

Meanwhile, a statement issued by the Prime Minister Office said President Erdogan extended sympathies and condolences over the loss of precious lives in the recent terrorist incident in Pakistan.

“Both the leaders expressed satisfaction over the strong bonds of brotherhood and close cooperation between the two countries,” the statement added.

The prime minister and Turkish president reviewed progress made in a number of important areas of bilateral cooperation, particularly since prime minister’s visit to Turkey in January 2019.

They also noted that bilateral collaboration in diverse fields would be further strengthened during the next meeting of the Pakistan-Turkey High-Level Strategic Cooperation Council (HLSCC) to be held in Islamabad later this year.

The prime minister stated that the government and people of Pakistan were looking forward to President Erdogan’s visit for the next meeting of HLSCC.

In the regional context, the prime minister apprised President Erdogan of Pakistan’s steadfast support to the international efforts for peace and reconciliation in Afghanistan.

During the conversation, Prime Minister Imran also highlighted the situation in the IOK.

The two leaders also discussed the Pakistan-Turkey-Malaysia trilateral process and exchanged views on the next steps.

Every country has said the same thing on Kashmir year after year and Pakistanis get excited every time, even when the results are the same.

The same people who support Pakistan’s position on Kashmir are trying to sign business deals with India.

Until these countries back their words with actions, the needle on Kashmir will not move one iota.

Results are not the same. Kashmiris held the light of justice in their darkest hours of Indian occupation. Every year of movement surviving lays foundation of not just diginity to kashmiris but eventually break up of india from brahmin raj where finally a punjabi can be a punjabi, a bengali a bengali and tamil a tamil.

10 billion dollars per annum is 0 effect .. good for you ..




Sure Sure. Just like you indians claimed to have killed over 300 terrorists in Balakot and shot down an F-16........:lol:

Just like you indians used to claim that it is impossible for Pakistan to EVER become a nuclear weapons state.......:lol:.......where would we get the money from???????........:azn:

Take a hint, a global superpower China is pumping billions into Pakistan via CPEC and other initiatives, there is a REASON for this.....:azn:.........and it's only expanding and getting bigger......:azn:

Considering Pakistan is more than 7× smaller than india and we control and own nearly 40% of Kashmir, that is an unprecedented and dazzling achievement.......:azn:.......and NO-ONE on this planet can do anything about it....... :azn:

Still in the FATF Grey List with all of them. That's truly :cry:
I read the FATF case, I personally think there are number of valid questions asked to Pakistani govt. And govt should act . I would say FATF is blessing in disguise for Pakistan. The grey list should hang and forcefully asked question about the issue raised in last conference.

As a prize, Pakistan can keep its part of Kashmir and India can keep its share. Agree?

Wait until the interests clash look at the tariff wars so do do not think India can keep on doing whatever. If India does not fulfill the role everything will be highlighted.

Ofcourse it will be highlighted, it suits Pakistan's narrative that way.

Words aside, any credible action from the aforementioned countries?

On a more introspective note, have these countries made similar statements in the past? If yes, what follow up action has been taken in this regard?

Beyond statements what actions have been proposed ? Can members here please shed some light on this matter.
