Hurriyat (M) chairman Mirwaiz Umar Farooq on Tuesday said the statement of United Nations (UN) Chief on Kashmir killings was welcome, but termed it of “little consolation” to the people of Kashmir facing “brutal Indian oppression.”
UN chief Antonio Guterres, has expressed his concern over the situation in Jammu and Kashmir and wants all member states to protect their civilians in every situation.
Mirwaiz reiterated that Kashmiris are waiting for UN’s intervention so that it could impress upon India to stop “genocide” and address the Kashmir dispute.
“UN Secretary General @antonioguterres statement of concern over the killings in #Kashmir is welcome but of little consolation to the people facing brutal oppression and eagerly waiting for the UN to intervene and impress on Govt of India to stop the genocide & address the dispute,” Mirwaiz tweeted.
