| Summary / Abstract (Note) | Imran Khan the Prime Minister of Pakistan was flying high and had developed a tinge of aggressiveness in his diplomatic offensives after Trump’s offer of ‘mediation’ on Jammu and Kashmir (J&K), where Donald Trump, the American President allegedly also quoted Narendra Modi, the Prime Minister of India that he too has asked for mediation. While the Trump’s statement led to a furore in India, Imran in Pakistan started preparing ground for securing international backing on Kashmir. However, he never anticipated that Modi’s Government would drop a ‘bombshell’ by rendering Articles 370 and 35A infructuous. Pakistan used this as an opportunity in connivance with China to take the issue to the United States Security Council (UNSC). |
