Imran Khan Russia Visit: Pakistani PM Imran Khan will visit Russia, Putin changing foreign policy regarding India?
‘No change in policy of non-interference in bilateral issues’
After this controversial video of Redfish, answers were sought from the Russian Embassy on social media. On this whole controversy, the Russian Embassy issued a statement saying that the description of Twitter as an organization affiliated to the Russian government does not mean that it has any support from the Russian government. The embassy said that the channel works editorially impartial but expressed the hope that a balanced approach is needed from a professional media group to give due importance to the complexity and historical background of the issue.

Regarding Kashmir, Russia said, ‘There has been no change in Russia’s basic position on the Kashmir issue and the policy of non-interference on the bilateral issue. India and Pakistan will have to find a solution to this and it should be based on the Simla Agreement and the Lahore Declaration. This statement of Russia comes at a time when Imran Khan is planning to visit Russia next month. Recently, Russian President Putin had talked to Imran Khan several times about the Taliban. Pakistan is constantly insisting on third party mediation but India is opposing it.
