When it comes to Brazil’s stance on the issue, it can be positively said that due to Brazil being a country
with foreign policies of non-intervention, international co-operation and peaceful settlement of
conflicts, it will not interfere with any serious measures. Also, due to Brazil being a vastly different
region than Asia, both culturally and otherwise, it would be unwise to say Brazil will give any specific
priority to the matter. One factor that could potentially catch the bias of Brazil would be the G4 alliance
which was formed between Japan, Brazil, Germany and India to support each other’s demands of
becoming a permanent member of the UNSC. Brazil in the end, will not really try to take a side and will
support the decision being that it should be left up to the Kashmiris i.e. plebiscite.
Although outdated, in 2011, Brazilian foreign minister Slive Emon said Kashmiris must be given their
birthright to self-determine their fate.
"Kashmiris are the prime party to the conflict. And we believe the United Nations' resolutions
promise a sustainable solution to the Kashmir conflict in line with the wishes of Kashmiri
people."
There is no perfect solution to this problem. A mass plebiscite will force migration of a percentage of the
community to a foreign land, as pointed out by UN representative Owen Dixon so in the end, the most
plausible solution for this problem would be for the UN to force a plebiscite which targets specific
regions in the area so that the problem of refugees does not arise. This way, the Muslims could Jammu
Kashmir could separate and join Pakistan.
