During his speech at the United Nations General Assembly, Sharif said Pakistan was making all attempts and even “going an extra mile” to resolve all the issues with India.

“India has posed unacceptable preconditions to engage in a dialogue. Let us be clear: talks are no favor to Pakistan. Talks are in the interest of both countries. They are essential to resolve our differences, especially the Jammu and Kashmir dispute, and to avert the danger of any escalation,” Sharif said during the UNGA.

Sharif also raked up the Burhan Wani issue and said he was a young leader murdered by Indian forces.

“This indigenous uprising of the Kashmiris has been met, as usual, with brutal repression by India’s occupation force of over half a million soldiers. Over a hundred Kashmiris have been killed, hundreds, including children and infants, blinded by shotgun pellets and over six thousand unarmed civilians injured over the past two months,” he said.
