KABUL: Indian Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee said on Thursday international community should not link 26/11 attacks on Mumbai to the Kashmir dispute.
Addressing a joint press conference with his Afghan counterpart Rangeen Dadfar Spanta, Mukherjee said the international community has to take Mumbai attacks as a part of global terrorism,
Apparently referring to the recent statement made by the British Foreign Secretary David Miliband on Kashmir suggesting terror attacks in south Asia would stop with the resolution of the Kashmir dispute, Mukherjee said: These attacks (on Mumbai) are not related to Jammu and Kashmir and are a part of global terrorism.
The international community has to take it as a part of global terrorism, Mukherjee added.
He claimed that Kashmir is an integral part of India and the people of that State have overwhelmingly exercised their voting rights.
Mukherjee mentioned on the occasion that it was decided by India and Pakistan in the Simla Agreement (July, 1972) that Kashmir is a bilateral issue.
