On Kashmir issue, Tasneem said that the Indian-held Jammu Kashmir was an established conflict and the UN Security Council provides platform to discuss the conflicts. She said that Pakistan urged UN Military Observer Group for India and Pakistan to play an effective role regarding ceasefire violations.

Speaking on Afghan President Ashraf Ghani's visit to Pakistan, the FO spokeswoman termed it as successful.

At the end of his two-day path-breaking visit, Ghani had vowed to open a new chapter in ties with Pakistan.
