Shehbaz Sharif Urges UN to Hold Kashmir Plebiscite at Geneva

During the 78th session of the UN General Assembly in Geneva, Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif addressed the assembly, focusing on the Kashmir dispute. He reminded the world that the UN had pledged a free and impartial plebiscite for Kashmir and that the Kashmiri people had been waiting for decades. Sharif called on the UN to honour its commitment and to facilitate a plebiscite under its auspices, citing the 1948 UN resolution on the issue. The call comes amid renewed tensions in the region, with India and Pakistan both asserting sovereignty over Kashmir, while the UN has yet to take concrete steps toward a plebiscite.
