He views the Indian government as a factor of the domination of Kashmir. Musharraf continued harassing the Indian government at the UN General Assembly on Wednesday by indicating that the.
             "Freedom struggle with terrorism is a travesty. The UN must promote a solution for Kashmir, as they did for East Timor, on the basis of UN resolutions.

New Delhi has mentioned that they are willing to begin a "dialogue" with Pakistan as soon as Islamabad stops supporting terrorist groups in Kashmir.
