Pakistan will not accept India as UNSC permanent member: Nawaz

ISLAMABAD: Pakistan made it clear to the United States on Thursday it would not accept India as a permanent member of United Nations Security Council (UNSC).
Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif expressed these reservations while speaking with US President Barack Obama on the phone, the PM House said in a statement.
The prime minister said India cannot become a UNSC permanent member due to its non-compliance of all the resolutions passed by UN regarding Kashmir, added the spokesman.
The US president called Nawaz in the evening where both the leaders discussed issues of mutual interest and those related to regional stability and peace for over half-an-hour, said the statement.
The spokesman said the prime minister made it clear upon the US president that permanent slot for India at the UNSC will not be tolerated at any cost as India has not fulfilled any resolution passed by UN aimed at assuring the right of self determination for the people of Kashmir.
During his visit to India last month, Obama had lent his support to India’s bid for UN Security Council’s membership which was seen in Pakistan as contempt of democracy and human rights.
“India is by no means eligible to become a permanent member of UN,” the prime minister was quoted as saying. Nawaz also conveyed Pakistan’s desire to become a member of the Nuclear Suppliers Group.
Meanwhile, Obama informed Nawaz about his recent trip to India and also congratulated the prime minister on the success of Operation Zarb-i-Azb.
Barack Obama visited India on January 25 and became the first US president to make two official visits to India during his tenure.
During the trip Indian Premier Narendra Modi and Obama announced they had reached an agreement to provide civilian nuclear technology to India that was signed in 2008 but had been held up by US concerns over liability in the event of a nuclear accident.
During his visit to India, Obama also became the first US president to attend the spectacular military and cultural display in a sign of the nations' growing closeness.

When the 5 permanent members of the UNSC are ready to accept India as a permanent member (along with support from many other countries), what say does Pakistan have in this matter?
And if outstanding border issues with neighbors is ground for disqualification from permanent membership of the UNSC, then China should also be disqualified as it has border disputes with Taiwan, South Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia, Philippines, Bhutan & India.

PM's point is valid. Since India has shown no respect to the UN by not complying with its resolutions, India does not have the right to be a member of SC at the UN. The problem is that just like India, others such as the US, China and Russia do not respect the UN either, so India has lots in common with the other SC members. Countries like Pakistan do not matter because they have no leverage over others

@Ali
Nawaz Sharif has done a good job of staying alive. Power in Pakistan comes out of the barrel of a gun, not at the ballot box. Every adult citizen in Pakistan should understand that by this time.
If the politicians in Pakistan are dysfunctional, which they are, expect a military government. My belief is that prime minister Nawaz Sharif is Pakistan's best option at that was my belief before elections.

The UN resolution on Kashimr 47 is not binding(passed under on either parties(India or Pak), so I don't see any violation. Resolutions passed under Chapter VI of UN charter are considered non binding and have no mandatory enforceability as opposed to the resolutions passed under Chapter VII. Most Pak people don't seem to research these facts before commenting.

Mr. PM: You and previous governments has missed decades of time. You guys were haggling and spending time in inventing ways to fool Pakistani people. Make your case now. How in the world can a country be in security council as a permanent member who has no respect for international law. The UN resolutions have not been complied with by Indians. Find an intelligent diplomat who can become a good FM, even he or she is not from your home town. Let him or her go around and plead Pakistan' case. Mr. PM, checking prices of onion and carrots is a cheap publicity stunt but does not sit very well even at home. Can you imagine your advisors with the same ability talking to foreign governments.

Pakistan should start communicating with all muslim countries and friendly nations to gather support for its opposition to india's possible candidacy for UN permanent seat. Time for a diplomatic push is now, not after six month or a year. India occupying Kashmir and refusing to accept UNO resolution, cannot and should not become permanent member of security council. This is a test of effectiveness of Pakistani diplomacy.

Until we (India) start talking to all power centers in Pak, peace cannot be reached. Here again we have taken a stand to only talk to civilian government. That give ample room to other to derail the peace process.
In near future, I don't see merging of power centers in Pak or change in our policy to talk to your Army directly or change in tougher stand of our government. So in a nutshell we will not sit together in any meaningful way to find peace.
Loss of life around these vicious circles is now norm rather than exception. Sad.

" The prime minister said India cannot become a UNSC permanent member due to its non-compliance of all the resolutions passed by UN regarding Kashmir " . This statement is factually incorrect . Yes the UN resolution calls for a plebiscite . But it imposes 2 conditions before that stage comes . The very first is that Pakistan withdraws all of its regular and non regular troops from Kashmir . Has Pakistan done this ? By refusing to withdraw its troops from Kashmir it is actually Pakistan who is not following the UN resolution . Only after Pakistan withdraws its troops from Kashmir is India supposed to do so ( but it is allowed to keep some residual forces behind for security ) . Only after these 2 steps is a plebiscite possible . I do not understand why even journalists and news anchors do not point this out ?

On what moral ground Bharat expects to become permanent member off UNSC ? It has repeatedly violated UN resolution, promised to hold plebiscite in Kashmir and then reneged.Under the watch of present PM, Narendra Modi when he was CM of Gujarat 2000 Muslims were massacred. Kashmir is under the occupation of 1/2 million Bharati troops. It is a neo colonial power. Having over a billion population and stockpile of nuclear weapons is no criteria to claim a seat on UNSC. Bharat is a regional power, a delusional power where some states in Bharat Union are as impoverished as poorest states of Africa.By becoming a permanent member of UNSC, Bharat wants to advance its hegemony over next door neighbours. Pakistan should challenge Bharat's candidacy for such a coveted position.

Even before China could become a permanent member of UNSC, India was offered the position which it declined due to Nehru's Non-Alignment Movement (NAM). So the permanent seat went to China.

Pakistanis will never accept it. Provide solid reasoning regarding Kashmiri issue to them so they can speak the same language. Third, Pakistan can convince China and probably few other countries, but don’t count on it, stick with first and second and you should be ok.

UNSC issue apart, i don't get Pakistan's antagonism towards India...If its about the alleged suffering of Muslims in Kashmir - then US and even fellow Muslims have killed and plundered far more of them - there is never such extreme sentiment towards them!
if its about Kashmir - Primary reason for Kashmiri suffering is because of consistent instability due to jihadi terrorism exported from outside of India... There are other Muslim dominated regions in India which have thrived and are as much a part of national identity.
Fact is Indian will never allow it to separate, call it national pride - just like Balochistan is for Pakistan or Tibet for China, and if Kashmirs allow progress and development and do not allow their generation to be instigated by imported jihad they will realize they are as Indian as anywhere else.
Why cant Pakistan(is) let go of the idea of imagined monster called India, and allow cooperation from both sides of border.

@shafqatmir you are raising your voice from 65 year and fighting three war over Kashmir issue. Kashmir issue will be resolved through mutual understanding , not crying on multiple platform , no country has right to dictate or undermine the foreign policy oi India. not china nor america ,nor united kingdom has right to saying anything to India on Kashmir issue. India want to work with Pakistan through peaceful dislodge for development of south Asia region but not want to change border of country in any condition. so Kashmir issue will be resolve out of box thinking that is suggested by both side of people.

Pakistan's objection to India becoming a part of UNSC is not based on a sense of morality for the Kashmir issue or the UN resolutions. Its just the "mujhe bhi chahiye" attitude. If Pakistan were to be offered support for the UNSC permanent membership, suddenly everything would be fine. Ditto for the membership of the NSG. If India has it, Pakistan must have it.

Consider Collin Powell's presentation on Iraq's nuclear capability. What a joke he made of himself, even now people consider him to be more clown than general, and where did this drama take place, the UN.

Hi my friends and brothers there in Pakistan. I want to just clear few things to you. We here do not have problems as its told to you in Pakistan. India is a vibrant secular democracy. Everyone, not withstanding his religion, has equal rights here. Thats why Mh. Azzurraduin, Tiger Pataudi were Indias captain, Indias missiles are developed by Abdul Kalam, who later became Indias President. Today Indias vice President is Muslim. There are many many more examples. You have just been exploited by your leaders to keep their profiles high. Every one in world, all world leaders including yours know this. You are bluffed in name of Indian Muslim and Kashmir. India has more muslims then entire Pakistan n we leave a great life here. Kashmir is a problem created by Pakistan, Pakistan views it as problem, were as India views it as one of its state. So whaterver you guys are doing now, belive it or not like it or not, you are looking like a fool; were as everyonr else, including we here in India, are leaving a good life, and you are struggling for basic amenties. No one from outside India can and should represent us(Indian Muslims). You fight for your own problems. We dont need you.

UNSC permanent seat for India has no value for India or Pakistan unless we learn to peacefully coexist. Together we can change the world of science, technology, literature, arts. Imagine SAARC countries together, same currency, no visa to visit each others country. Sounds like an Utopian dream. But, we should strive hard towards that direction in 21st century. If that happens Kashmir issue or any other land dispute will become immaterial. The propaganda machinery of our Governments will keep on feeding information which will suit its foreign policy and long term strategic interest, but we as common citizens of the two countries should think about the plight of our future generation rationally without any sense of vengeance or hatred against each other.

@Shaneeza Pakistan is going to break off relationship with all the major powers of the world?
Would save a lot of $$$$ for a hard pressed Pakistan. Cannot see any other benefit except for a well aired pique?:):)

Don't expect China to abstain and rest of all countries as well, because they all have lot to gain with peace and friendly relationship with India.
Whereas Pakistan is alienating and isolating itself just merely thinking about Kashmir. Army & ISI rule is only what is better and suits it.

Pakistan is a failed state. It should stop meddling in the affairs of other countries.

Pakistan should not be either afraid of India or it needs nothing to flex its muscle unnecessary. The country,has courageous people, a parliament,a well established middle- class, a new generation of entrepreneurs,skilled manpower, a disciplined army with a nuclear teeth.It maintains a good neighbourly relation with Iran, a strong friend and neighbour China,a workable relation with Afghanistan that is also improving.On the other hand, to all its neighbour India is a suspect.With whom India has normal neighbourly relation? Rather imposed good relation, if one like to describe it.Of course, Pakistan passing hard economic days if we compare with older times.A country does not crumble due to the economic failure.
Rather, political failure is the cause. Look back, patiently one would find the reason of the debacle of 1971.
The best foreign policy is first to give a good government. Geo- politically Pakistan is so important that Both India and USA need Pakistan.They will come to you. So please play politically and take steps judiciously.Think patiently. This time is for Pakistan.

India's membership will be totally meaningless unless Pakistan agrees to it.
If India's own neighbor does not accept it's membership, then why will the rest of the world care? If India cannot exert it's influence in it's own immediate neighborhood, then it cannot exert influence anywhere else in the world.
So, go ahead and give India membership, and see if it counts for anything, unless Pakistan agrees to it. India knows this fact.

@shamain agreed. Read how India usurped the independent nation of Sikkim. No one recognizes that occupation just like IOK. India will never get UNSC seat, but US uses it to get India to open its markets, to be looted. But makes Indians happy to fill their empty headed balloons and U.S. the joy of bursting it.

@OM sure, on that date IOK gets vacated and Azad kashmir gets vacated. UNMOGIP takes over, to carry out UN sponsored plebiscite. The fairest and most democratic way known so far. Results announced and both countries bound to accept results.Agreed.

Great- the two absolute opposites in mind, thought, culture, looks, perceptions- confirms that these two countries are from different spectrums, with nothing in common what so ever. Pakistan could be closer to Bulgaria and India to Japan, but never with each other. A point to understand and digest for Indians.

@Rao ...good point, now ask Obama why he is ringing Nawaz to brief him and take his opinion. And China , simply dismissing it, by statement given in Pakistan. The reality, is far too different, from the perceptions fed to you in your country.

@Black Sabbath With India becoming a permanent member, the UN will be just that , a speech platform. That is why it will make sense to leave the UN.

@hindustani "Your country is most confused country on the earth whose policies are contradicting's at every level." Maybe same thing can be said about India. At one hand you portray your nation to be the flag bearers of Gandhian philosophy and at same time your country is on record to have started the nuclear and missile race in the subcontinent. So what is it confusion or bigotry? Out of my utmost respect for the Mahatma , I will give you benefit of doubt and consider it as mere confusion.
