‘Pakistan No Longer Considers the Shimla Agreement Valid, the Line of Control (LoC) is Now the Ce@sefire line’, Khawaja Asif

Defence Minister Khawaja Asif has said that the Simla Agreement of 1972 is no longer valid. He called it a “dead document” and explained that Pakistan is now going back to its original position on the Kashmir issue from 1948. This means that instead of following the terms agreed upon in the Simla Agreement, Pakistan will now treat the Line of Control (LoC) as just a ceasefire line, as it was seen in the early United Nations resolutions after the first war between India and Pakistan.

He strongly criticized India for taking one-sided steps that, according to him, have damaged the agreement and the trust between the two countries. Asif said that because India has not respected the spirit of the Simla Agreement, Pakistan will no longer rely on this bilateral framework to solve future issues.

He further added that from now on, Pakistan will raise the Kashmir issue at international platforms and deal with it in a multilateral way. This marks a clear change in Pakistan’s policy, showing that the country now wants to involve global forums and not just rely on direct talks with India.
