'To de-militarize Kashmir is not the answer, to de-terrorize Pakistan is'

UNITED NATIONS: Reacting to Pak Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif’s comments on Kashmir in his UN general assembly speech, India on Wednesday asked Islamabad to de-terrorize Pakistan instead of asking for de-militarizing Kashmir. India called Pakistan the prime sponsor of terrorism and accused Islamabad of breeding terrorists.

The official spokesperson for the ministry of external affairs Vikas Swarup, in a series of tweets, countered the claims made by Nawaz Sharif in his UN speech.
“Pakistan's instability arises from its breeding of terrorists. Blaming neighbors is not a solution,” he tweeted. Earlier, indirectly accusing India for its instability, Sharif said in his UNGA speech, “Wisdom dictates that our immediate neighbor refrains from fomenting instability in Pakistan. The two countries should address and resolve causes of tension and take all possible measures to avert further escalation.”

Countering Sharif’s charges, Swarup said, “Pakistan's instability arises from its breeding of terrorists. Blaming neighbours is not a solution.”
Sharif in his speech also suggested a new peace initiative between the two countries. One of the ways to achieve peace, according to him, was to demilitarize Kashmir. Apart from this, he also wanted unconditional and mutual withdrawal from Siachen Glacier, the world’s highest battle ground. Swarup seem to have reacted to this in his tweet: “To de-militarize Kashmir is not the answer, to de-terrorize Pakistan is.” In another tweet, he said: “Pakistan is not primary victim of terrorism but of its own policies. It is in fact the prime sponsor of terrorism.”

Swarup also urged Pakistan to vacate Kashmir. He said in his tweet, “Pak PM gets foreign occupation right, occupier wrong. We urge early vacation of Pak occupied Kashmir.”
