After returning from a two-day visit to China, Pakistan Foreign Minister Shah Mehmadu Qureshi has said that his visit to China was very important and can say that China has a very clear view on the issue of Kashmir in which they have no doubt .

Shah Mehmood Qureshi also said that there is no doubt in the proposals of the Organization of Islamic Countries OIC on the issue of Kashmir and the attitude of Saudi Arabia is not different from the OIC.

Qureshi said these things during a press conference in Islamabad on Monday. On 20–21 August of the same month, he visited China.

He said that in one year there have been three meetings in the United Nations Security Council on the issue of Kashmir, which was not possible without the help of China.

He said that China has said very clearly that the step taken through India on 5 August 2019 is a one-sided action that China rejects.

On August 5, 2019, the Modi government of India abolished the status of a special state given to Kashmir under Article 370 of the Indian Constitution and by abolishing the status of its state, it was renamed as two union territories Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh Was divided into

Pakistan had termed this step of India against the UN Security Council resolutions on Kashmir.

According to Qureshi, China has said that it will secure the bilateral strategic interest of Pakistan and China in order to ensure the peace and development of the region, which according to them is a response to the opposition on the CPEC (China-Pakistan Economic Corridor) is.

Objected to India's response

On this occasion, Shah Mahmood Qureshi also said that India's response to the joint statement issued during his visit to China was not correct.

Indian Foreign Ministry spokesman Anurag Srivastava had reacted to the Sino-Pakistan joint statement, saying that some part of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor is in the territory of India which has been illegally occupied by Pakistan.

He had said, "We strongly oppose any country's attempt to change the status quo in the case of Jammu and Kashmir, which is under the occupation of Pakistan." We hope that no country will interfere in the internal affairs of India. ''

Speaking to reporters on Monday, Shah Mahmood Qureshi said that China has once again made it clear that it wants a solution to the Kashmir problem in light of UN Security Council resolutions and two-way (India and Pakistan) agreements, Which according to him is a very important statement.

He said that every effort has been made to break the enthusiasm of Kashmiris in the last one year from India.

According to Qureshi, the joint statement issued by six Indian administered Kashmir parties (Guptkar proposal) has given a new strength to the struggle of the people of the valley.

On Saturday, a joint statement was issued by the PDP, National Conference, People's Conference and some other parties in which they topped the demand for restoring Kashmir's special status.

Relations with Saudi Arabia

Shah Mehmood Qureshi said that Pakistan has a special view on the issue of Kashmir and therefore he has some expectations from his friends.

He said that Pakistan's relations with Saudi Arabia are stable and will remain.

In response to a question whether Saudi Arabia has asked for the money back to Pakistan, Qureshi said that this is a fabricated and imaginary question.

He said that Pakistan has put its view on Kashmir in front of the whole world and Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that Pakistan will not come under any pressure in this matter.

Regarding Saudi Arabia's perspective on the Kashmir issue, Qureshi said a negative perception was projected on social media about it.

Regarding Saudi Arabia, Qureshi said, "Saudi Arabia's view on this is very clear and now it is to see how to take it forward."

This statement of Qureshi is important because his statement about Saudi Arabia and OIC was created quite a lot in the last days.

Qureshi's previous statement on Saudi Arabia

Shah Mahmood Qureshi, speaking on a program on a private news channel ARY for the first time on a public platform, Saudi Arabia, on 5 August 2020 when Pakistan was celebrating Harassment Day, marking the completion of one year of the end of the special status of Indian-administered Kashmir Openly expressed dismay at the policy of Arabia.

He had said, "Saudi Arabia and we have very good relations." Izzat and Mohabbat have a relationship. Pakistanis are willing to die for the safety of Mecca and Medina. Today I am telling the same friend country (Saudi Arabia) that the Muslim of Pakistan and the Pakistani who is ready to die fighting for you, today he is asking you to play that leadership role (on Kashmir's case). , Muslims who are expecting you and if not done, I will tell Imran Khan that I cannot wait any longer. We have to move forward. With or without Saudi Arabia. ''

There was a panic in the diplomatic circles on the complaint from Saudi Arabia openly on behalf of the Foreign Minister of Pakistan. Qureshi expressed his outrage at Saudi Arabia and the OIC.

He had said, "I will once again humbly request the OIC that if you cannot call a meeting of the Council of Foreign Ministers, I will forcefully ask my Prime Minister that those Muslim countries who want to stand with us on the issue of Kashmir Are and want to support the victims of Kashmir, call their session whether they are on the OIC forum or not."

After this statement, there was a panic in the media and political circles. Many people dismissed it as their personal statement. Even Imran Khan had to say that there are no differences with Saudi Arabia and strong brotherhood relations are maintained with them.

After this statement by Shah Mehmood Qureshi, behind-the-scenes diplomacy swung into action.

The Saudi Ambassador based in Islamabad met Pakistan Army Chief General Qamar Javed Bajwa at Pakistan's Army Headquarters in Rawalpindi and then General Bajwa visited Saudi Arabia.

Shah Mahmood Qureshi's statement on Monday that everything between Pakistan and Saudi Arabia is normal is actually an attempt to reduce the tension created by his statement.
