Advocating a tripartite dialogue for resolving Kashmir issue, Moderate Hurriyat Conference led by Mirwaiz Umer Farooq today said the amalgam will extend "fully support" any process which can help in finding a solution to the vexed problem.
"The struggle of Kashmiris cannot be suppressed by force and the leadership of Hurriyat, which is representative of the aspirations of the people, will continue to fully support any process which can help in resolving the (Kashmir) issue," the Mirwaiz told a religious gathering here.
He said resolving Kashmir issue was imperative for lasting peace in the south Asian region.
"The improvement in the situation in Jammu and Kashmir is linked with the resolution of Kashmir issue and this reality should be accepted that till the issue is resolved, the danger to peace in the state and the south Asian region will increase," he said.
The Mirwaiz said a meaningful and result-oriented dialogue involving India, Pakistan and Kashmiri separatist leadership to resolve the issue was unavoidable.
"Delaying tactics in the dialogue process would continue to force the political situation in the region towards further uncertainty," he said.
