The United Kingdom on Wednesday said that the situation in Jammu and Kashmir remains a matter for India and Pakistan to find a lasting political resolution, reported PTI.
Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office Minister Nigel Adams said that it was not for Britain to play a role in the bilateral matter, but accepted that there were human rights concerns on both sides.
“The government’s policy [on Kashmir] remains stable, it’s unchanged,” Adams said during a discussion in the House of Parliament complex on the political situation in Kashmir. “We continue to believe that this is for India and Pakistan to find a lasting political resolution to the situation that takes into account the wishes of the Kashmiri people as laid out in the Simla Agreement.”
