China has criticized India’s proposal to hold the G-20 summit in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir and urged the group’s participants to concentrate on the economic recovery rather than politicking the pertinent issue.

Zhao Lijian, a spokesman for the Chinese Foreign Ministry, stated during his regular briefing in Beijing that China’s position on Kashmir is consistent and unambiguous.

“It is a legacy issue between India and Pakistan and it should be properly resolved in accordance with the relevant United Nations (UN) resolutions and bilateral agreements. Relevant parties should avoid complicating the situation with the unilateral move,” he added.

Pakistan reiterated that the territory is under New Delhi’s forcible and illegal occupation and has already rejected India’s attempt to host the G-20 summit there.
