While highlighting the findings of the Report of OHCHR, Masood Khan regretted that instead of addressing the concerns perpetrated by the Indian occupation forces and duly raised in the report, India exacerbated its repression in IoK with the imposition of governor rule and was continuing to resort to the brute use of force.
The Foreign Minister highlighted the steps taken by the Ministry and Pakistani Missions aboard to underscore the importance of the OHCHR Report and said Pakistan would continue to draw attention to the findings of the Report at international forums.
The Foreign Minister affirmed that the people and the government of Pakistan would continue to give full moral, diplomatic and political support to the people of IoK in their legitimate struggle to attain their inalienable right to self-determination.
