In his statement at the ongoing Asian African Summit in Jakarta, the Advisor to the Prime Minister of Pakistan for National Security and Foreign Affairs, Mr. Sartaj Aziz made an unacceptable reference to Kashmir. In response, the Indian representative,
Mr. Anil Wadhwa, Secretary (East), took the floor and said the following:
"It is most unfortunate that Pakistan has once again chosen to use an international forum such as this to make tendentious remarks about the state of Jammu & Kashmir, which is an integral part of India.
As the representative of Pakistan knows, under the Simla Agreement of July 1972, and the Lahore Declaration of February 1999, India and Pakistan are committed to resolve all outstanding issues bilaterally through peaceful dialogue and cooperation, and not in
a multilateral forum like this African Asian Meeting which is meant to commemorate the spirit of Bandung.”
