PR No. 57 Islamabad, 9th August, 2019

Prime Minister Imran Khan made a telephone call to the King of Bahrain, His Majesty Shaikh Hamad bin Isa Al-Khalifa, to apprise him of the evolving situation in the Indian Occupied Kashmir (IOK) and Indian violation of the UN Security Council. Prime Minister Imran Khan strongly condemned and rejected the announcement made by the Government of India and underlined that they were in violation of UNSC Resolution. He stressed that IOK was an internationally recognized disputed territory and no unilateral step by Indian Government can change the disputed status as maintained in the UNSC Resolution. He urged that international community must play its role to stop India from this irresponsible and unilateral action to maintain peace and stability of the region. The King of Bahrain said that the government of Bahrain was closely monitoring the developments in the IOK with deep concern and hoped that all issues would be resolved through dialogue.
