Kashmir

[urban genie]

Keir Starmer has repositioned Labour on the issue of the Kashmiri conflict after meeting with the executive team of Labour Friends of India (LFIN) this morning.

Following his call with the group, the new Labour leader said: “We must not allow issues of the sub-continent to divide communities here.

“Any constitutional issues in India are a matter for the Indian Parliament, and Kashmir is a bilateral issue for India and Pakistan to resolve peacefully.

“Labour is an internationalist party and stands for the defence of human rights everywhere.”


So hownmich should be be interfering with the Kashmir issue and wha tshould happen?

Both countries claim ownership while many want autonomy

What is the solution.

We should stay out of it, we shouldn't touch it with a ten foot barge pole.

Starmer is absolutely right to steer clear.

It is India's and Pakistans business and so far, despite the tensions and rhetoric they dont seem to be at the point of all our war.
