UNITED NATIONS: Pakistan highlighted the struggle of peoples in occupied Palestine and Kashmir for their right to self-determination at an event organised by Russia, South Africa and Vietnam to mark the 60th anniversary of the landmark UN Declaration on Decolonisation.
The commemorative meeting held on the sidelines of the 75th session of UN General Assembly was attended by nearly 100 member states. Adopted by the General Assembly on 14 December 1960, the Declaration on âGranting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoplesâ, called for immediate cessation of âall armed action or repressive measures of all kinds directed against dependent peoplesâ to enable them to exercise peacefully and freely their freedom of choice.
