European Union asks «to reduce tension» to India and Pakistan because «the world does not need another war»

The high representative of the European Union for Foreign Affairs, Kaja Kallas, urged India and Pakistan on Thursday to «reduce tension» to avoid the risk of «a calculation error» in the current climb between the two countries because «the world does not need another war.»

«I think nobody wins in this war,» Kallas said at a press conference after the two -day informal meeting held by the foreign ministers of the European Union in Warsaw.

The former Prime Minister Estonia reported that today he spoke again with the Indian and Pakistani Foreign Ministers to «transmit the message of uncalled», since «it is evident that they must act in moderation.»

«There is always the risk of a calculation error, and I hope we can reduce tension,» said the head of European diplomacy.

Both nuclear powers, which maintain a historic dispute over Kashmir control, have drastically raised hostilities after armed men killed 26 people in a tourist area of ​​the Indian Kashmir.

«Of course, we condemn terrorism and any loss of lives of both India and Pakistan. We regret the loss of lives, «Kalla said, but maintained that» it is important that the communication channels remain open. «

And he added: «I hope we can all transmit this message to reduce tension. The world does not need another war ».

In a previous statement, the European Union and its twenty -seven Member States today requested «moderation» and «dialogue» to India and Pakistan after the tension escalation registered after the «atrocious terrorist attack» in the Indian Kashmir on April 22, an attack that India attributes to Pakistan.

This Wednesday, during an Indian air attack next to the incessant exchange of shooting in the control line, the de facto border between the two countries in the disputed Cashmir region, 31 civilians died and 57 other people were injured, according to the Pakistan army.
