External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar said that if any region has been illegally occupied for the longest time since the Second World War, it is Kashmir. The External Affairs Minister questioned the United Nations while referring to Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) at the Raisina Dialogue on Tuesday.
Jaishankar said, we went to the UN and what was an invasion was made into a dispute. The attacker and the victim were put in the same category. He also questioned the attitude of Western countries on political interference in the Kashmir issue. Jaishankar said this shows how Western forces distorted the reality of Kashmir. It is important to audit the functioning of the world for the last eight decades be honest about it and understand today that the balance and stakes in the world have changed.
He further said we need a different conversation. We need a different system. The Foreign Minister also advocated for a strong and impartial United Nations, expressing concern over historical injustice in dealing with some issues. He said that global rules and regulations should be applied equally, especially on issues related to sovereignty and territorial integrity. He said, we need a strong United Nations but a strong United Nations requires an impartial United Nations.
Basic stability necessary for global order
Jaishankar said that a strong global order should have some basic stability in standards. He said that when Western countries talk about a country, they say that democracy is in danger there, but when another Western country points a finger at it, it is called malicious interference. He said we have to understand the importance of world order. The old system was a product of its time... Its merits were exaggerated because the views of those who made the rules and those who followed them were different.
It is not necessary to be a big country for anarchy
Jaishankar said we need an international system, just as we need a domestic system... If there is no system, then it is not necessary for a country to be big to create a situation of anarchy. Any country can take the risk and use the chaos for its benefit. Some small countries in our neighborhood have also done this. He was referring to Bangladesh.
