In an interview recently, Shah Mehmood Qureshi had said that if a meeting of the OIC Council of Foreign Ministers was not convened on Kashmir, Pakistan would be forced to convene a meeting of friendly countries willing to help the oppressed Kashmiris.
Opposition parties have strongly criticized the foreign minister’s remarks, and opposition leader Shahbaz Sharif has responded by saying that the foreign minister’s statement on Saudi Arabia was irresponsible and should be apologized for.
