China once again snubs Pakistan on Kashmir issue
Last updated: Sep 26, 2016, 3:28 PM (IST)

Beijing,
For the second time in less than a week, China on Monday snubbed Pakistan by declining to back reports in Pakistani media claiming Beijing’s support for the country in the event of any aggression and backing it on the Kashmir issue.
As a “neighbour and friend to both”, China once again appealed to India and Pakistan to engage in dialogue to “properly” resolve disputes, including the Kashmir issue which, it said, was “left over from history”, and jointly work towards regional peace and stability.

Asked about the reported remarks by the Consul General in Lahore that China will support Pakistan against any foreign aggression and backs Islamabad on the Kashmir issue, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Geng Shuang told a media briefing here that he was not aware of any such remarks made by the envoy.
“I am not aware of any such situation you mentioned. But China’s position on the relevant issue is consistent and clear,” he said.
“As the neighbour and friend to both Pakistan and India, we hope the two countries will properly address their differences through dialogue and consultation, manage and control the situation and jointly work for the peace and stability of South Asia and the growth of the region.
“With regard to the Kashmir issue, we believe it is an issue left over from history. We hope the relevant parties will peacefully and properly resolve the issue through dialogue and consultation,” he said.
He was replying to a question about the remarks attributed to the envoy made during his meeting with Chief Minister of Pakistan’s Punjab province Shahbaz Sharif.
“In case of any (foreign) aggression our country will extend its full support to Pakistan,” Consul General of China in Lahore Yu was quoted as saying in a press release by the Punjab Chief Minister’s Office, according to a report by Pakistani daily Dawn.
“We are and will be siding with Pakistan on the Kashmir issue. There is no justification for atrocities on unarmed Kashmiris in (India)-held Kashmir and the Kashmir dispute should be solved in accordance with aspirations of the Kashmiris,” the report had quoted Yu as saying.
China’s reaction on Monday is the second time since September 22 that it distanced itself from the Pakistani media attributing Beijing’s support to Pakistan on the Kashmir issue.
China has declined to confirm Beijing’s backing to Islamabad on the issue during the meeting between Chinese Premier Li Keqiang and Pakistan Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in New York on the sidelines of the UN General Assembly.
The two leaders “exchanged views on bilateral relations as well as international and regional issues of common interest,” Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesperson Lu Kang had told PTI here when asked about reports that Li extended support to Pakistan’s stance on Kashmir.
A report in Dawn said Li had assured Sharif that China would continue to support Pakistan’s stance on Kashmir. It had quoted Li telling Sharif that “we support Pakistan and we will speak for Pakistan at every forum”.

China is a 'friend' of both. Hence I don't think they will take sides.

I will be surprised if China will take overt position on issues between India and Pakistan. The case of Russia was the same too, Russia too cannot take overt position on issues between India and Pakistan, because they don't have any direct stake here. International community will be neutral on issues between India and Pakistan at least overtly.

Many journalists here don't know the difference between refused exercises in p O k and exercises in your own territory.

Don't blame the idiocy of some.

Ok. So China doesn't back us. What will India do with it?

There is a tremendous difference between exercise cancelled altogether or change of venue. You don't need to be a journalist to realize that.

Let's be honest most of your media houses were saying they got cancelled.

Well then what's stopping modi from teaching Pakistan a lesson? Pakistan is totally isolated, so this is the time to strike deep inside Pakistan but nothing like that is happening. I'm afraid somebody is selling rotten eggs.

 

[UniverseWatcher]

Boy and here we go again...

We have have seen the reliability of India media after the past few days nvm it's been like that since forever..

 

[Musafir117]

No wonder if listed in most un haappiest nations list Ro India Ro

 

[Vapnope]

Umm yeah they have broken ties with Pakistan, scrapping CPEC and cancelling all defense deals with Pakistan.
China-India Friendship Zindabad !

Discussing India and Pakistan relations with a Bangladeshi is awkward. What has India teaching Pakistan a lesson has to do with a Bangladeshi? As far as I know the relations between BD and India are at the best. Why not us discuss on relations between BD and India?

Its not ' time' yet.

From saying "Russia has cancelled the exercise" to "No the venue has changed" nothing is surprising. I pity your relations which could not stop the exercise even when you had full 8 months not even after the Uri Attack.

 

[cocomo]

India media posts should be flagged as propaganda/bollywood so the young impressionable youth of Pakistan doesn't believe in it.
As they cannot really isolate Pakistan, their strategy now seems to be lets make them feel they are isolated.
