United Nations: New United Nations Secretary General Antonio Guterres does not “lack interest” in resolving the Kashmir issue but has not been able to speak with leaders of India and Pakistan since he assumed office as the world body’s chief this month, the UN spokesperson said.
UN spokesperson Stephane Dujarric rejected the assertion when asked during the daily press briefing that “no efforts” are being made by the former Portuguese Prime Minister to resolve the Kashmir issue while he has taken much interest in the resolution of the situation in Cyprus.
Dujarric said that while Guterres, who took charge on January 1, has had a number of contacts with government leaders around the world, he has not been able yet to speak to every leader that he would like to speak to.
