BEIJING: Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Mao Ning on Thursday said the Kashmir issue should be properly resolved peacefully in accordance with the United Nations (UN) charter, relevant Security Council resolutions and bilateral agreement and stressed the need to avoid taking unilateral actions that could further complicate the situation.

“China’s position on the issue of Kashmir has been consistent and clear. This is an issue left over by history between India and Pakistan and should be properly managed peacefully in accordance with the UN charter, relevant Security Council resolutions and relevant bilateral agreements,” she said during her regular briefing at International Press Centre.
