# India rejects Norway FM’s Kashmir remarks, cites PoK terror 2026-08-14T18:57:26+00:00 | Governance | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 4 independent outlets On Friday, India rejected Norwegian foreign minister Espen Barth Eide's remarks on Kashmir made during his visit to Islamabad. MEA spokesperson Randhir Jaiswal said the whole of Jammu, Kashmir and Ladakh is an integral part of India. He said the international community should focus on atrocities in Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) and its use for cross-border terrorism. Eide had discussed Kashmir and Afghanistan with Pakistan's foreign minister Ishaq Dar, who raised India's suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty. Jaiswal said India's position on the treaty remains unchanged. India suspended the treaty after the 2025 Pahalgam terror attack, demanding Pakistan end support for cross-border terrorism. ## Coverage - hindustantimes.com - timesnownews.com - ndtv.com - economictimes.indiatimes.com Tags: Indus Waters Treaty, Kashmir, Norway, Pakistan, Randhir Jaiswal Canonical: https://indianopinion.org/india-rejects-norway-ministers-kashmir-remarks-during-pakistan-visit/ License: Summary and commentary (c) Indian Opinion, reusable with attribution.
