Kashmir is core dispute between India and Pakistan: Nawaz Sharif
 [TIMESOFINDIA.INDIATIMES] Upping the ante, Pakistain Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif... served two non-consecutive terms as prime minister, heads the Pakistain Moslem League (Nawaz). Noted for his spectacular corruption, the 1998 Pak nuclear test, border war with India, and for being tossed by General Musharraf... on Sunday said Kashmire is the "core dispute" between India and Pakistain and the dream of peace and prosperity of the people of the region will remain elusive without resolving the issue. Describing Kashmire issue is the "unfinished agenda of partition and the oldest disputes in the UN Security Council, Sharif said "for the last seven decades India has denied the people of Kashmire the right to self-determination promised to them by the international community through numerous UN Security Council resolutions". He was speaking on the occasion of ' Kashmire Solidarity Day+ '. "The people of Pakistain join their Kashmiri brothers and sisters in observing Kashmire Solidarity Day today to reaffirm our moral, diplomatic and political support to the legitimate struggle of the Kashmiri people for their basic human rights ...which are often intentionally defined so widely as to be meaningless... , especially the right to self determination enshrined in the relevant UN Security Council resolutions," Sharif said.
