Controversy Surrounds G20 Meeting in Kashmir Region.

China has boycotted the G20 tourism meeting hosted by India in the disputed region of Jammu and Kashmir, citing opposition to holding any kind of G20 meetings in disputed territory. Other countries, including Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Turkey, were also expected to boycott the event. The move has been criticized by rights groups, with the United Nations Special Rapporteur on Minority Issues accusing India of instrumentalizing the G20 meeting to normalize what some have described as a military operation in a region where fears of human rights violations and violence are rife.
