However, she also expressed her gloom over India’s denial of Trump’s statement that Indian Prime Minister Narendar Modi had asked the US president to mediate over the Kashmir issue.
She stated that this House believes that India is adamant on keeping up appearances and servicing its own ego. She said it was regrettable that India backpedalled from owning its own request. She highlighted that this sort of retraction showed that India was not kenned on peace in the region.
She applauded the role of the US president and welcomed his offer. The MPA said that resolving the Kashmir issue was need of the hour for this region. Cheema said the house should declare the meeting between Trump and Khan as a success.
