Maleeha Lodhi calls Sushma Swaraj’s UNGA speech ‘pack of lies’

NEW YORK: Pakistan's Permanent Representative to the United Nations Dr Maleeha Lodhi on Monday called Indian External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj’s speech at UN General Assembly ‘a pack of lies’.

Dismissing the UN’s resolution on Jammu and Kashmir Sushma Swaraj continued her country's anti-Pakistan tirade in the UN General Assembly today, calling on the international community to isolate Pakistan.

In her speech, Swaraj also ripped apart the United Nation's resolution declaring Jammu and Kashmir a disputed territory.

While keeping mum on India's human rights abuses in Occupied Kashmir, the Indian foreign minister hinted at the Pakistani prime minister's speech and claimed Nawaz Sharif had hurled baseless accusations at India.

Swaraj tried to divert attention from atrocities in Indian Occupied Kashmir by speaking about Balochistan.

Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif in his UNGA speech had highlighted Indian human rights abuses in Indian Occupied Kashmir and said that peace between India and Pakistan cannot be achieved without a resolution to the Kashmir dispute.
