Desk:After the removal of Article 370 from Jammu and Kashmir and the abolition of special status, the historical and ground changes that have taken place in this Union Territory now seem to be getting approved at the international level. A recent statement by US Ambassador to India Sergio Gore, who is very close to US President Donald Trump, has given sleepless nights to the separatists and Pakistan. During his visit to Srinagar, Gore bluntly said that “Jammu and Kashmir is very beautiful and an integral part of India.”

​After this statement of Gore came to light, Pakistan's propaganda in international diplomacy has been completely exposed and every dream it had regarding Kashmir seems to be shattered. US Ambassador Sergio Gore, who was on a visit to Srinagar, praised the beauty of the valley and the conditions there, saying, “It is very pleasant to come here. This is an important part of India. I have come here for the first time. This is a very beautiful place. I am very thrilled to be here and see this place. We had a very good meeting.”

​This statement of the American Ambassador is not just a formal comment, but it also has deep diplomatic meaning. A top diplomat considered close to President Trump openly calling Kashmir an integral part of India proves that global superpowers have now fully accepted the ground reality of Jammu and Kashmir.

This statement of Gore is like a big shock for Pakistan. Due to this stand of America, Pakistan's decades old propaganda has collapsed. Pakistan has always been trying to portray Kashmir as a disputed issue on international forums, but this clear stand of America has deflated its claims.

There was panic in Islamabad. Immediately after this statement of the American Ambassador, Pakistan summoned the American diplomat in Islamabad and registered its strong protest. Diplomatic experts believe that this clearly shows the deep disappointment and frustration of Pakistan.

How is this situation being viewed at the international level after this statement? The world has now accepted that peace, development and normalcy have returned to Kashmir after the removal of Article 370. This is the reason why the US Ambassador has also indicated to review the travel advisory to tourism and travel of American citizens in the valley.

The strategic partnership between India and America is at a crucial juncture. This statement has come at a time when relations between the two countries in the fields of trade, technology and security are continuously touching new heights. India is gaining the upper hand in global diplomacy. At the global level, the world has now started accepting that Kashmir is India's internal matter and the space for Pakistan's propaganda on this issue is decreasing on the international stage.
