Encouraged by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s supportive words, leaders of the Baloch nationalist movement have sought support from the US and European countries against the oppressive Pakistani regime.
Chairman of the Baloch National Movement Khalil Baloch said in a statement that the world must understand that Pakistan’s use of religious terrorism as a policy tool will have far reaching consequences.
Terrorism cannot be contained, but needs to be countered effectively, he said.
He expressed hope that the US and Europe will join Prime Minister Modi and hold Pakistan accountable for the crimes against humanity and the war crimes it has committed against the Baloch people during its occupation of Balochistan.
He said the indifference shown by international community in this respect is worrying.
Pakistan demands self-determination and self-rule of Kashmiris and at the same time in Balochistan it is crushing the same demand of Baloch people by force.
This not only exposes the double standards of Pakistan, but also their evil design to destruct the peace and stability in the region, he said.
The remarks by Baloch leaders came after Prime Minister Modi brought up Pakistani atrocities on people of Balochistan and PoK in his Independence Day speech yesterday.
