A significant discussion titled "The Kashmir Issue and the Diplomatic Front" was organised by the Kashmir Overseas Forum in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, where members of the Pakistani and Kashmiri communities actively participated.
According to the 24NewsHD TV channel, Sultan Haseeb, Press Attaché of the Pakistan Embassy, highlighted that United Nations resolutions are clear evidence that peace in the region can only be achieved by granting the Kashmiri people the right to self-determination.
Sultan Haseem assured continued political, moral, and diplomatic support for the Kashmiris.
Sardar Muhammad Parvez, the newly elected Chairman of the Forum, suggested that the Government of Pakistan establish a dedicated Kashmir Desk on the diplomatic front, which would allow Kashmiris to present their cause directly to the international community.
He affirmed that the struggle for Kashmir's inherent rights would continue until they were achieved.
Other speakers at the event, including Iftikhar Abbasi, Engineer Muhammad Shafiq, Sardar Saleem Aftab, Raja Naveed ur Rehman, Qari Zakir Jazbi, Sardar Atiq, Ibrahim Jutt, and Dr Ahmad Alvi, emphasised that a strong economy and robust leadership in Pakistan are essential to resolving the Kashmir issue.
