High-powered delegation reaches UK after wrapping up US visit, will proceed to Brussels next

Pakistan's former foreign minister Bilawal Bhutto-Zardari revealed that despite having the upper hand in the recent conflict with India, Pakistan agreed to a ceasefire with the condition of engaging in dialogue to resolve all issues. He shared this information with reporters in London after the Pakistani delegation returned from the United States. The delegation, which includes prominent figures like Hina Khar and Khurram Dastgir, is on a mission to present Pakistan's perspective on the conflict with India and counter New Delhi's allegations on a global platform.

The team recently visited the United States and is scheduled to proceed to Brussels next. During their engagements, they have called for global powers to intervene in resolving key issues with India amidst ongoing tensions.

Mr. Bhutto-Zardari expressed hope that the Kashmir dispute would soon be resolved after the US mediated the ceasefire. He emphasized the need for international players like the US and the UK to persuade India to engage in talks to address the issues.

The delegation also engaged with members of a British think tank, academia, and policymaking community at Chatham House. They highlighted Pakistan's perspective on the recent escalation and expressed concerns about India's military aggression, emphasizing the need for global action to support dialogue and respect international commitments.

Denouncing India's actions regarding the Indus Waters Treaty, Mr. Bhutto-Zardari urged the international community to hold India accountable for its actions. The delegation emphasized Pakistan's commitment to defending its sovereignty and preventing India from setting new norms in the region.

During their visit to the UK, the team is scheduled to meet with senior leadership of the UK Parliament, including groups focused on Pakistan and Kashmir.
