“The leaders discussed the serious situation in Kashmir and agreed on the importance of maintaining dialogue,” said a statement issued by the UK PM’s Office following a telephonic conversation between the two leaders.
PM Imran also congratulated Johnson on his new role.
They also “underlined their continued commitment to the bilateral relationship between the UK and Pakistan”.
