While announcing the UN official’s visit on Saturday, thrilled Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi had said he would be discussing a range of issues with the visiting dignitary, including the human rights situation in India’s Jammu and Kashmir

Pakistan, almost isolated by the international community, was waiting for the arrival of the incoming president of the United Nations General Assembly on Sunday, but the visit was postponed at the last minute due to some technical flight problems.

Volkan Bozkir, a Turkish diplomat was elected as the president of the 75th session of the UN General Assembly last month and was expected to land in Islamabad on Sunday, reports the New York Times.

While announcing the visit on Saturday, thrilled Pakistani Foreign Minister Shah Mahmood Qureshi said he would be discussing a range of issues with the visiting dignitary, including the human rights situation in India’s Jammu and Kashmir and unprovoked firing, shelling on border by India.

“I look forward to welcoming you to Pakistan soon for a constructive and fruitful visit,” the elated Pakistan Foreign Minister said in his tweet.
