India needs third-party mediation on Kashmir conflict: Global Times

INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
BEIJING: The US is not the first country to offer to mediate on Kashmir conflict
Former South African President Nelson Mandela and incumbent Norwegian Prime Minister Erna Solberg had also offered third-party mediation.But
India has paid no heed to any offer, which has escalated tensions in Kashmir, according to an article published by Global Times, a widely
circulated Chinese newspaper.Perhaps India should try to understand why the international community generally supports improving
India-Pakistan relations through peaceful negotiations
That because, during the more than 70 years of disputes, the two countries have always lacked an effective channel of negotiation
Clashes have erupted along the Line of Control, which had cost many innocent peoples& lives.Under such circumstances, China has always
supported international mediation because the peace and stability of South Asia is of great importance
If the India-Pakistan disputes lead to war or even a nuclear confrontation, then the two peoples will become innocent victims
China national strategy and interests will be seriously harmed as well.For example, the China-proposed Belt and Road Initiative will face
severe challenges in South Asia if the region suffers from war
China supports all countries, including the US, that sincerely aim at promoting peaceful negotiations between India and Pakistan, because
this is also in line with China own interests.TheIndianSubcontinent has not verified the content of the source
