It said in a press release today that Jammu and Kashmir issue is one of the oldest items on the agenda of the UNSC, which remains unresolved because of “India’s intransigence and unwillingness to implement the relevant UNSC resolutions and its own solemn commitments made to Pakistan, the Kashmiris and the international community”.
