"Hurriyat is desirous of a meaningful dialogue for the development of friendly relation between India and Pakistan. The involvement of third party is imperative for everlasting solution to Kashmir issue," Mirwaiz said in a statement here.
He said trust deficit and frequent breakdown in the dialogue were the biggest hurdles in resolution of outstanding issues.
"This hurdle cannot be overcome without the involvement of a third party and the UN can positively play this role," he said, adding "Kashmir is the oldest unresolved issue on the UN Agenda and it is the primary responsibility of the world body to implement its resolutions on the region."
"Sharif's statement on resolution of Kashmir issue during a meeting with UN Secretary General Ban Ki Moon in Dushanbe on the margins of High-Level International Conference on the implementation of the International Decade, Water for Life, was timely and need of the hour," he said.
Mirwaiz said Kashmir is the basic problem behind the bitter relation between India and Pakistan and a lurking threat to the peace in the entire region.
