Supreme Court\u2019s \u201cpolitically motivated\u201d decision<\/a> to validate New Delhi\u2019s illegal and unilateral measures of August 5, 2019, he said he had arrived in Muzaffarabad to express Pakistan\u2019s unwavering commitment to the Kashmiri people in the wake of the grave injustice done to them.<\/p>\n\u201cToday, I ask the world: When will its collective conscience awaken? How long will the people of Kashmir continue to make sacrifices? For how long will their voices be muzzled? How long will the leaders remain arbitrarily detained? And for how long will they continue to suffer torture and extrajudicial executions?\u201d he questioned.\u201cKeep your rants to yourself and if you are serious about the real issues, we are ready to talk about them,\u201d he said, in a message to New Delhi.<\/p>\n
\u201cBy the way, we should not forget that Muzaffarabad is not Gaza and Delhi is not Tel Aviv, even though [Binyamin] Netanyahu and [Narendra] Modi have many similarities,\u201d he remarked.<\/p>\n
Alluding to the recent statements by some BJP leaders, PM Kakar said no one could snatch even an inch of the territory of Gilgit-Baltistan and Azad Kashmir.<\/p>\n
He maintained that if support by the whole of Europe and US to Ukraine was legitimate, the same should also be legitimate in case of Indian-occupied Kashmir.<\/p>\n
\u201cIndia might be the need of the US for strategic confinement of China, but it\u2019s not our need,\u201d he said, without mincing words.\u201cThe way RAW\u2019s belligerence is heading towards the western hemisphere should serve as a wake-up call for Western civilisation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
