India rejects EU-Pakistan Kashmir references after Islamabad dialogue

India has rejected references to Jammu and Kashmir in a joint statement issued after the latest EU-Pakistan Strategic Dialogue in Islamabad. The Ministry of External Affairs said the remarks were unwarranted and that outside parties had no standing to comment on what it described as India's internal matters. The exchange adds another diplomatic dispute over Kashmir, a long-running issue in India's relations with Pakistan and, at times, with other foreign partners.
