UN did its job, says Guterres on Kashmir report, hopes that India, Pak will engage in ‘meaningful dialogue’

United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres on Friday hoped that India and Pakistan will engage in a “meaningful dialogue” to resolve their issues.

Talking about the recent UN report on Human Rights violations in Kashmir, Guterres  said that ‘UN has done its job.’

India responded by calling the report ‘fallacious, tendentious and motivated’.

The UN chief also said he has been offering his “good offices in relation to the dialogue between the two countries that, until now, had no conditions of success.”

Guterres was speaking to reporters at the UN headquarters in New York.

“I hope that the importance of both India and Pakistan is such in international affairs, I hope that the two countries will be able to engage in a meaningful dialogue,” he said.

The UN chief was responding to a question on his repeated urging of dialogue between the two South Asian neighbours.
