The cashmere conflict in the context

The Kashmir conflict has its roots in the division of British India in 1947. The region has been controversial between India and Pakistan since then, with the majority of India. The division led to the creation of the so -called "Line of Control", which has been one of the most dangerous limits in the world since then. To date, the conflict has resulted in several wars and persistent unrest, especially since the 1980s.

Despite various attempts to solve, including UN suggestions and the 1972 Shimla Agreement, these efforts were unsuccessful. The current military situation has been the most violent for decades, while the chances of a de -escalation prove to be rather low, since both sides continue to hold on to their positions.
