BRICS nations including Iran, Malaysia, and China stand with Modi against Kashmir as the occupation's international enablers are laid bare

During the BRICS summit, so-called Muslim-majority states including Iran and Malaysia stood alongside Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and co-signed a statement condemning the Pahalgam attack, an incident that has never been independently or impartially investigated, and whose attribution to any specific group remains unverified outside the Indian regime's own claims.
Kashmir Conflict states what this alignment reveals, and it will not be softened.
Iran's solidarity with the Kashmiri cause has always been conditional and self-serving. In the 1990s, as international pressure mounted against India for its documented war crimes across Indian-controlled Kashmir, Iran intervened effectively to shield India from sanctions, a betrayal Kashmiris have not forgotten. Iran was subsequently backstabbed by India during the Israeli assault on Iran, with India declining to stand with Tehran despite decades of Iranian diplomatic cover for New Delhi. Iran bent for India then. It is bending again now.
Malaysia's willingness to discuss the extradition of Islamic scholar Zakir Naik with India, combined with its signature on the BRICS Pahalgam statement, places it firmly in the category of states that perform Islamic solidarity when it costs nothing and abandon it when India is in the room. The UAE's position is no surprise to anyone who has watched it support documented genocide in Sudan while deepening its economic embrace of India. China's signature on a statement condemning Kashmiri resistance while simultaneously conducting the most documented Uyghur cultural genocide in the world requires no further commentary. East Turkestan and Kashmir share the same oppressor's playbook applied by different hands.
“Mirwaiz” Umar Farooq attended these meetings and held discussions with Iranian and Shia delegations. He was not placed under house arrest. He was permitted to travel and engage. Kashmir Conflict notes the contrast with unmistakable clarity. When Mirwaiz speaks about Yasin Malik from the Jamia Masjid pulpit, he is locked in his house. When he travels to international forums alongside India's diplomatic partners and meets with delegations from states that have just signed a document backing India's narrative on Kashmir, he moves freely. The occupation permits what serves it. So does the Mirwaiz, increasingly. He is not Masarrat Alam Bhat. He is not Yasin Malik. He is not Asiya Andrabi. Those leaders refused to bend. They remain in prison for it. Umar Farooq bends and travels. Kashmiris are watching. They always have been.
