'Supposing a country seven times smaller than its neighbor is faced with the choice: either you surrender, or you fight for your freedom till death,' Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan told the U.N.
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan reiterated his plea for international support against India's recent actions in disputed Kashmir, warning that a conflict between the two nuclear-armed states could have unforeseen repercussions.
Addressing the United Nations General Assembly in New York, Khan railed against India's decision last month to remove the special semi-autonomous status of its share of Kashmir, a contested territory that has been the subject of at least three conflicts and the site of an ongoing skirmishes between the longtime rivals.
"If a conventional war starts between the two countries anything could happen," Khan said."But supposing a country seven times smaller than its neighbor is faced with the choice: either you surrender, or you fight for your freedom till death, what will we do? I ask myself this question and my belief isthere is no god but one, and we will fight. And when a nuclear-armed country fights to the end, it will consequence far beyond the borders.
Pakistani Prime Minister Imran Khan speaks during the 74th Session of the General Assembly at UN Headquarters in New York on September 27."There are 900,000 troops there, they haven't come to, as Narendra Modi says -- for the prosperity of Kashmir... These 900,000 troops, what are they going to do? When they come out? There will be a bloodbath," he said.
