ISLAMABAD – British Member of Parliament (MP) from the Labour Party has termed the situation on the ground in Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK) as deeply troubling, urging the UK government to play its role in resolving the decades-old Kashmir dispute. According to Kashmir Media Service, Stephen Kinnock taking part in a debate on a motion on “Human rights in Kashmir” in the House of Commons, said, “For 72 years this conflict of Jammu and Kashmir has been going on. It is the world’s longest unresolved conflict. It dates back to 1947 and it is defined by the long and tragic history of political and military conflicts.” He said it is not just the historical responsibility of the UK to play its part but also the country has so many ties that bind it even in 2021. “There is an opportunity to work with our friends and partners in Pakistan and India and with the Kashmiri people to find a peaceful solution,” he said. Stephen Kinnock said as many as 95,000 people have been killed in the last 30 years alone by some accounts whereas IIOJK is recognised as “the most heavily militarised territory in the world”.
