Pakistan has summoned the U.S. Charge d’Affaires in Islamabad over remarks made by U.S. Ambassador to India Sergio Gor, who described Jammu and Kashmir as an important part of India. The Pakistani Foreign Office strongly condemned the statement, asserting that the region is an internationally recognized disputed territory.
The protest followed a visit by Gor to Srinagar, where he made the comments during a meeting with local officials. Pakistan emphasized that the U.S. Position on Kashmir has historically aligned with its stance on the issue, and the remarks were seen as contradictory to that commitment.
Multiple media outlets reported the diplomatic action, highlighting the sensitivity of the Kashmir issue for Pakistan. The Foreign Office reiterated that the region remains a matter of dispute and that the U.S. Should respect the position of all parties involved.
The situation underscores the ongoing tensions between Pakistan and the U.S. Over the status of Kashmir, a region that has been a point of contention for decades. The diplomatic response reflects the seriousness with which Pakistan views the matter.
