MIRPUR, June 24 — Shoukat Nawaz Mir, a core member of the proscribed Jammu & Kashmir Joint Awami Action Committee (JKAAC), has issued a detailed statement appreciating the Government of Pakistan, Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif, and Chief of Defence Forces Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir for what he described as their constructive and responsible role in promoting regional and global peace through diplomatic engagement.
He referred to recent international developments, including diplomatic efforts aimed at easing tensions between the United States and Iran, and praised Pakistan’s position in supporting dialogue-based solutions to global disputes.
