One
of the most militarised borders in the world is the one between India and
Pakistan. Men and the most sophisticated means of control stand of both sides
of the line. The tension level is always very high, close to open conflict. Unfortunately,
these days it is even closer. We are witnessing an extreme delicate crisis
between the two countries. The reason is once again the dispute and the
unresolved situation around Kashmir. I do not think we, in Europe, should take
sides. But we should advise both countries to lower the pressure. We should
express our deep concern with the current escalation of the conflict. And
appeal to China to remain out of the problem. By taking sides with Pakistan,
the Chinese are not playing the constructive role they should be playing in the
region. That is not the Chinese foreign policy President Xi Jinping has pledged
he would follow.
