Escalating his threat of a nuclear war on India, Prime Minister Imran Khan on Sunday said that the conflict between India and Pakistan would not be limited between the two nuclear-armed countries and could have dangerous consequences across the region.
Addressing the Islamic Society of North America in Houston via video call, Khan said that he raised this point during his talks with world leaders while apprising them of the Kashmir situation, Radio Pakistan reported.
Pakistan has been desperately trying to internationalise the Kashmir issue since New Delhi in a historic decision abrogated the constitutional status accorded to the region.
However, Islamabad has been snubbed on all fronts as the international community has made it clear that the Kashmir issue is strictly New Delhi's internal matter.
In the video, Khan also said that India might "resort to attacking Pakistan for diverting world attention from its human rights abuses in Jammu and Kashmir." The Prime Minister reiterated that India will be given a "befitting response if it launched any aggression against us."
He further alleged that India tried to change the status of Kashmir by violating the relevant UN resolutions.
