Srinagar: The Arab
League, an association of 22 Arab countries, looks forward to
"peaceful coexistence" in Jammu and Kashmir but has no specific
position on the dispute between India and Pakistan, says its
ambassador.
Addressing a peace conference here late Monday, Arab League
Ambassador Ahmed Salem Al Wahishi said: "The League of Arab States
has no specific position on the question of Jammu and Kashmir."
"We look forward to peaceful coexistence and tolerance in the
whole region."
The peace conference was organised by J&K Peace Foundation.
Jammu and Kashmir, Al Wahishi said, had passed through a violent
situation of hatred and confusion for the last 20 years.
"We want peace to last in West Asia, South Asia and the entire
world."
