External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar, speaking at the Raisina Dialogue 2024, addressed the issue of Kashmir, highlighting the different perspectives surrounding the conflict.
Responding to a question about the role of values in international relations, Jaishankar noted that interests often play a significant role. He cited the example of Kashmir, where India initially presented the issue as an “aggression” to the United Nations, while others framed it as an “accession” based on their own geopolitical considerations.
It is important to recognize that the “accession” and “aggression” narratives represent different perspectives on the historical events surrounding Kashmir. Both perspectives are complex and deserve careful consideration.
This revised version provides a more neutral and objective overview of Jaishankar’s comments while avoiding endorsing any particular narrative.tunesharemore_vert
