‘Effective foreign policy adopted’
ISLAMABAD, April 19: Foreign Minister Khurshid Mehmood Kasuri has said the government has adopted an effective foreign policy and a principled stand on international issues, including Kashmir.
This mature policy led to a softening of the Indian position on a composite dialogue on all outstanding issues offered by Pakistan on a number of occasions, he said.
According to a statement issued here on Saturday by the Foreign Office, he was addressing a community meeting at the residence of the Ambassador of Pakistan (Retd) Abdul Aziz Mirza in Saudi Arabia. The gathering comprised overseas Pakistanis, including bankers, doctors, engineers, intellectuals and business executives.
The minister said as a result of a very close cooperation between Pakistan and various other countries, as well as the positive and mature policy adopted, important countries sent their emissaries to Islamabad.
Kasuri said that Pakistan had always extended moral, political and diplomatic support to the people of Kashmir for getting their right of self-determination as guaranteed by the UN’s resolutions.—APP
