Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said on Saturday that now even United States of America was saying that Indian occupied Kashmir (IoK) is a dangerous place and that US citizens should avoid visiting there.

Speaking to the media in Sukkur, the foreign minister said that before attending the conference he had read that the US had warned its citizens not to visit IoK as it was a dangerous place. He said this was a completely different attitude of the US which had last year formed the South Asia new policy. "This is Allah's generosity and your diplomacy's result," added Qureshi.

While addressing the Kashmir issue, Qureshi said that now Hurriyat leadership as well as Indian opposition is saying that India has lost its control of Kashmir. He said leaders like, Mehbooba Mufti, Farooq Abdullah, Umar Abdullah and Syed Ali Gillani are saying that India's policy on Kashmir has failed.

Qureshi expressed his disappointment over the Indian team's action of wearing army caps in the match between India and Australia. He said that the International Cricket Council should take notice of this attitude.
