"The government and people of Pakistan will always stand by their Kashmiri brethren in their quest for self-determination and continue to extend their full political, moral and diplomatic support to them."
“The Kashmir cause was close to the hearts of every Pakistani and their commitment to their cause of self-determination was unwavering,” he added.
Gilani urged progress on establishing a "peaceful and negotiated resolution" of the Kashmiri problem.
