Kashmir issue is not only of Kashmiris, Pakistan but of entire Islamic world: Yousef Aldobeay

Islamabad: Special Representative of the Secretary General of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation (OIC) for Jammu and Kashmir, Yousef Aldobeay, while reiterating OIC’s constant support for the Kashmir cause, said that the issue of Kashmir is not only of Kashmiris and Pakistan, but of the entire Muslim world.

Yousef Aldobeay expressed these views during a conversation with the delegation of All Party Hurriyat Conference Azad Jammu and Kashmir (APHC-AJK) chapter, which met him, today, at the Foreign Office.

He said Kashmiris need patience and hope, adding the OIC stands by their side in their just struggle for right to self-determination. He further said Pakistan’s efforts against Islamophobia are valuable and the fact is that the massacre of Muslims, the destruction of mosques and the desecration of the Holy Quran in India and India’s illegal occupation of Jammu and Kashmir is Islamophobia, which India is committing.

Yousef Aldobeay said the OIC has rejected the actions of August 5, 2019 in Occupied Jammu and Kashmir by Modi-led Indian government and has been demanding that India withdraw its unilateral and illegal actions.

APHC-AJK chapter Convener Mahmood Ahmad Sagar on the occasion briefed Yousef Aldobeay and other members of the OIC delegation about the latest situation in occupied Jammu and Kashmir and also informed them about the various aspects of India-Israel collusion against Muslims.

Other APHC-AJK leaders Muhammad Farooq Rahmani, Ghulam Muhammad Safi, Syed Yusuf Naseem, Mir Tahir Masood, Altaf Hussain Wani, Syed Faiz Naqshbandi, Muhammad Rafiq Dar, Sheikh Abdul Mateen and Sheikh Mahmoo Yaqoob also apprised the OIC delegation members of the political, diplomatic and economic aspects of the Kashmir liberation movement, the Indian state terrorism on innocent Kashmiris and the plight of the illegally detained Kashmiri Hurriyat leaders and activists.
