BEIJING: China and United States on Wednesday called on Pakistan and India to solve their differences over Kashmir, as tensions mount between the nuclear-armed neighbours after an attack killed 18 Indian soldiers in the disputed Himalayan region.
China “hopes that Pakistan and India will strengthen channels for dialogue, appropriately handle any differences, improve bilateral relations and together protect the region's peace and stability”, a deputy foreign minister told Pakistan's special envoys to China for Kashmir, according to the foreign ministry website.
The deputy minister, Liu Zhenmin, also told the envoys that China values Pakistan's position on Kashmir.
Know more: United States to urge India for holding talks with Pakistan over Kashmir issue
China has long been a strong diplomatic, military and economic supporter of Pakistan, and the two call each other “all-weather friends”. Their ties have been underpinned by wariness of their common neighbour, India, with which China fought a brief but bloody border war in 1962.
Tensions between India and Pakistan rose on Tuesday as India's leader cancelled a visit to a regional summit and Islamabad warned it would treat it as “an act of war” if India revoked a Indus Waters Treaty.
US urges India, Pakistan to 'resolve differences peacefully'
In a press briefing by the White House, Press Secretary Josh Earnest urged India and Pakistan to “resolve the differences peacefully and through diplomacy”.
When asked about what does the US think of the current situation in the region, now that “India has pulled out from regional Saarc Summit in Islamabad later this year”, Earnest said:
“The United States has continued to encourage India and Pakistan to find a way to resolve their differences peacefully and through diplomacy. And we have condemned violence, particularly terrorist attacks.
“We continue to be hopeful and encouraging of both sides to try to find a way to resolve their differences and to reduce their tensions through diplomacy and without resorting to more violence.”
Know more: Cooling down Kashmir
In the wake of rising tensions at borders with India, China has already assured in unequivocal terms its support in case of any foreign aggression and also supported Pakistan’s stance on the Kashmir dispute.
“In case of any [foreign] aggression our country will extend its full support to Pakistan,” Consul General of China in Lahore Yu Boren was quoted as saying by Punjab Chief Minister Office earlier this month.

If kahmir is integral part of india why it is still closed after day 80 ? if people of kashmir are proud indians how come curfew still imposed by indian occupation forces in the valley?
There is no shutter down or curfew in any part of baluchistan its reality check for india kashmir is a disputed territory not part of INDIA 600000 presence in the valley only securing land not hearts and minds of people of kashmir. Be ware no army can defend any piece of land if their residents are against them.

I hope that Modi ji and its advisor have well thought about what if China could respond to this act by blocking River Indus and River Brahmaputra as both of them originate from there. This step would led India Violating an international treaty backed by the World Bank and India would invite condemnation from across globe putting as India is already under immense pressure amid of Kashmir's violence. The speech by Permanent Representative of Pakistan to the United Nations General assembly was a already a slap for Sushma Swaraj's speech and the response is weak as of what is expected from India

Both the US and China can easily arrange for issuance of an order from the UN / UNSC asking India to hold a referendum seeking Kashmiris views in accordance with the UN resolutions which remain unimplemented since many...many years but the UN and/or big powers have not done any thing and have chosen to remain silent. Instead of "urging" Pakistan and India to resolve differences the best thing to do is for them to press India to abide the resolutions and hold the referendum thus ending the status quo which is neither in the interest of any of the two countries nor for the global peace.

India and Pakistan don't have leaders who have the vision and courage to resolve disputes peacefully. India and Pakistan defied and shocked the world by acquiring nuclear-weapons. They can't be trusted or expected to resolve the Kashmir dispute peacefully, therefore the United Nations must intervene.
UN Security Council Kashmir Resolutions must be implemented. Kashmir has become a nuclear flashpoint, the world can't sit on the sidelines hoping for peace, when a nuclear conflagration could destroy both the countries killing tens of millions of people.

John Kerry should first call China and ask it to return to India that part of Kashmir ceded to it by Pakistan. Otherwise, he is wasting his time. America may have the money and time to fight a war on terror for 1000 years. It is still funding Pakistan for harboring Osama Bin Laden, and others. India does not ...
China for its part must cooperate with USA's request and not waste any time on that

@Smart Solution ... Tibet was usurped by China and its legitimate government fled to India with the Dalai Lama.India's Nehru did not contest that at that time. India had a weak army and the Chinks took full advantage of it. Infact the legitimate Tibetan government is operating in Dharamsala India. Times are lot different now. India may derecognise the arbitrary usurping of a peaceful country (Tibet) by China. The world will support an independant Tibet. We are living in exciting times!

In recent days’Indian aggression&on-going atrocities in IHK is exceeding limits beyond human tolerance&for India to justify itself in front of comity of nations. Moreover, cease-fire violations are on the increase as well. This is where UN diplomacy is going to matter,"US, China urge Pakistan, India to solve differences over Kashmir."In presence of UNSC resolutions it is imperative for all UN P5 members to intervene&to bear responsibility of implementation of UNSC resolutions on the issue of IHK.The Indian atrocities&its bravado in threatening Pakistan with consequences for isolating Pakistan internationally is a provocation of great concern that can lead to an all-out war. Now UNSC should take-up this issue for implementing its UNSC resolutions at its forum so as to,“resolve the differences peacefully and through diplomacy,”between India&Pakistan. UN will not have any option to intervene if two nuclear states go to war. IOK issue is not going to be resolved without UNSC intervention.

CPEC is a real joke. CPEC is going to benefit China only much. I don't think Pak economy is going to benefit too much on that as it is being exaggerated. But can't Pak build their own roads..... I wonder,, why they need China for this.

While Pakistan is busy in raising Kashmir issue on every possible international forum, India is taking measure to isolate Pakistan. Recent success is this regard is 4 members of the SAARC boycotted the meeting of the Heads of the State. India is taking measures to scrap Indus Water Treaty and status of Most Favorite Nation.

Please read Dawn article (http://www.dawn.com/news/1286697/should-we-rethink-kashmir) it clearly says Kashmir issue removed from UN. No more flexible or anything sort. Please work for good will of people of Kashmir on both side. That is what Pakistan should concentrate now.

We need leader like Modi. Even though he has not dared to attack us directly, he has given us enough damage diplomatically.
We are thinking all Islam majority countries will support us, at the same time Modi has been able to make relationship with our neighbors, Afgans & Iran with Chabahar Port deal.
When we say Russia our new friend, they have not left India either. (India- Russia Joint Military Exercise going to held in Ussiriysk, Russia).
None of the South Asian Countries is supporting us except China.
We have already lost US to India.
Modi has been able to make good ties with Japan, Israel & France.
We can't completely rely on China.
Modi has been at least partially been able to isolate us.
India spends 5 times more on defence compared to Pakistan. We need to loose our pockets for strengthening our army.

@Abdul That is inevitable. India is a big country with population of 1.25 billion and foreign exchange reserves of 430 billion dollars and rising, as against 22 billions of our own and unstable. Any country like India that has so great a business potential will certainly be preferred even by our own brothers or they wouldn't be in their right mind.. We have got to pull ourselves up economically to be counted with internationally, otherwise all our talking about our greatness and being let down by others would be a naïve approach.
