ISLAMABAD: United Nations chief Antonio Guterres in a four-day visit to Islamabad announced that he is worried by underlining his fears about tensions between Pakistan and India over the disputed Kashmir region.

"I am deeply concerned," Guterres said at a joint press conference with Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mehmood Qureshi, pointing to renewed clashes between the South Asian nuclear-armed neighbours in recent months.

Tensions have been running high since a decision by India in August to strip the region of Kashmir of its special autonomous status in a decision that angered Pakistan. The UN Chief praised Pakistan for its crucial role in Afghan peace process and for hosting Afghan refugees. Pakistan is organising an international conference with the UN refugee agency UNHCR, marking 40 years since hundreds of thousands of Afghans found refuge in the country.
